You wandered through misery and silence for half your lifetime, feeling every change in the wind and the pain of the world around. You were lost and didn't want to be found. There was no salvation within; so you gave up on false idols of joy and light. Aching and broken, you closed your eyes. The world disappeared, your mind grew louder, And you gave up. Or so you thought. You expected an end and received a beginning. I'll wait a lifetime for you to catch up and meet the new you. You'll be ok again.

The Other Me
You wandered through misery and silence for half your lifetime, feeling every change in the wind and the pain of the world around. You were lost and didn't want to be found. There was no salvation within; so you gave up on false idols of joy and light. Aching and broken, you closed your eyes. The world disappeared, your mind grew louder, And you gave up. Or so you thought. You expected an end and received a beginning. I'll wait a lifetime for you to catch up and meet the new you. You'll be ok again.
Big shoutout to therapy and medication.
