Mar 2021
its like flying through an endless dark void.
its something that you can't easily avoid.
its a feeling that always lingers inside you,
like a dark stained permanent tattoo.

it felt like i was standing on a tall ledge,
just waiting for something to push me off the edge.
but now im just continually falling into a void leading to nowhere,
casually struggling just to breathe some fresh air.

all i can feel is nothing but complete emptiness.
as i walk through life seeing nothing only but darkness.
i will walk through this path patiently alone.
waiting just for someone to come tag along.

it was never like this in the beginning.
i used to be a naive child that was always grinning,
now im locked up in my room crying my pain away,
wishing someone could've stayed and made it all go away.

i was never truly alone, but it somehow felt lonely.
people were around me but can't seem to understand me.
i was like a new language waiting to be deciphered.
but all i ever wanted is to be heard.
