I never realized, I never knew, I never recognized The pain I heard In a voice, The hurt I saw In their eyes. Today I realize Today I know Today I recognize How deep that pain runs How much that hurt kills How difficult it is to survive One may wonder What triggers this What leads to such demise Yet now I know There's no one thing Unless it's name is life So many factors So many events So many choices So many thoughts Running through my head With no escape All it takes Is one more thing And SNAP goes my sanity I lay here thinking Wondering Contemplating Could I have done something different? One factor, One change, One choice Would it make me happier? I shall never know If I had chosen Other paths along the way Whether they would lead to this Or help me in other ways I do believe, Despite my pain That this is where I should be That one day, Looking back, I will see what I am meant to see Yet for now, I lie so fragile Broken some may say And think my thoughts That hurt so much And don't know what to say
