Lately I've been hard to reach,
I've been too long on my own..
Everybody has a private world
where they can be alone

Are you calling me?
Are you trying to get through?
Are you reaching out for me,
Like I'm reaching out for you?

When I accidentally ran into oblivion,
Did you make sure to pull me out?
When I cried to sleep at night,
Did you know what was going on about?

Your promises seemed as empty
as the wide never-ending night sky.
Will you then remember me
After the last goodbye?

No, don't show me those tears
which will dry by the passing day.
I only deserve those precious pearls
Which ascertain to never decay.

I've seen enough of your colors
I'd rather you see my darkness now
And if you can with your heartless heart
Then, feel my scars somehow.

Do not give yourself the false hopes
Of my instant return
This time I will be gone for good,
This time I will not turn.

Now I wish to remain hard to reach,
I will be on my own..
Everybody has a better private world
where they can be alone

Were you calling me?
Were you trying to get through?
Were you reaching out for me,
Like I was reaching out for you?
I've taken the first stanza from Beautiful by Eminem. He is inspiring.
How can some people remain just as normal even after knowing that they've mentally scarred someone for life?
