I am Void. A concept. But in the end, I am nothing.
If only they could see the dreams that I see Maybe they'd support me I'm writing a book A concept from 2016 Its a beautiful story Yet my family and friends are not there for me Its disheartening to be so passionate about something and feel like it is all for not That is the curse of a dreamer That is the curse of a leader As my dream begins to fade, I won't give in under the pressure this time This book, I've invested too much time into This book to me is perfect I just have to help them see that it's worth it

Misplaced
Debilitating When the mind cripples the body Infuriating When your youth fades day by day Hurting When trust is broken because no one believes you Yearning To just get out of bed, while they think you're lazy Praying Your pain could go away Begging To live a normal life Its very real When the mind is so sick, it affects your physical being

Mental Illness
Its easier being invisible You don't know my name You don't know my face Those of you who read the words I write Sometimes are the only ones who listen I don't want an identity Because its not easy being me Even when I'm here, I only take up space and no one notices No one cares So only you can know my pain And only I can take it away I'm just a wasted space, invisible in the void And that's okay

Space
Nothing ever works out I am always sold out There's nothing like Having no one believing a word I say Its not like I lie It just happens this way I feel framed for something that never even happened Maybe I'm delusional I promise this usual A typical day for me I just grow tired of no one believing me Its funny cause I never lie All I ever do is try to make people understand I guess they'll never know who I am

Just Tired
His dampened existence, so dreary and bleak Was met with the warmth of her smile of which nothing can compete He was like the rain, his pain surged like thunder But her touch lingered tranquility- as the sun showed its face His existence was as black as the night; silent and dark in the mind Her light shone through to open his eyes He now understood just why the moon needed the sun

Harmony
The ground crumbles beneath my feet Slowly chipping away at the foundation where I stand There is nowhere left to go I am stuck here on my own You brought me to this place, void of life Everyone, in the end is gone and I am left to fall all alone Everyone that I loved Every moment we shared is gone

Isolation
All this hate, and the regret Even the anger and torment All of these feelings I don't get, because I bury them deep inside All of the times I should have lashed out All of the pain and tears have dried out All of these feelings I don't get, they haunt me While all of this time- On the inside I'm screaming To be let out

Screaming
Do you ever feel guilty when you walk all over people? Do you ever feel ashamed when you lie? Do you ever think that maybe you should care about your child? Or does everything always have to revolve around you? Do you ever get tired of manipulating others? Do you fall asleep with a satisfied grin? Tell me, what's it like to be you?

Narcissist
If I could sleep And forget everything If only for a moment My mind would be at peace If I could only dream And escape reality If only for a while I'd feel a sense of relief

Dream
I can't find the words today... If I speak, no one will believe me They never did, anyways So I put my heart on display But my mind is slipping My soul is aching And I just want them to listen to me I want somebody to believe me Just because my condition isn't physical, doesn't mean it isn't real Mental illness infects the mind and body Some people are too ignorant to understand
