Why do I feel worthless?
Why am I so alone?
I know that some people care.
But I still feel I have no home.

I know that it's not everyone.
I know that I have friends.
But my path has so many bends.
To many forks and dead ends.

The hurtful words stick.
And the ones that matter fade.
And I'm stuck in dark illusions.
That my own mind made.

I'm not the type to be loved.
It's what I've always been told.
And every time it's said.
The pain increases ten fold.

I've been short on kind words.
Eventually I just shut up.
No words could describe my pain.
My heart never did catch up.
