The Outcome

When you have no one to confide in,

You become your own best friend.

You talk yourself to feeling better,

You seem okay, but you pretend.

 

When you have no one to lean on,

You have to stand up on your own.

You can not given into emotion,

Or the fact that your alone.

 

When you wish that you'd stop living,

Just to get some peace,

You wish you had a piece of mind,

To make those evil thoughts decrease.

 

When you come to the realization,

That these dark images make it hard to see,

Do not be alarmed for the slightest moment,

It only means that you are just like me.
