Have you ever gotten to the point where you push the ones you love so far away they don't even bother trying? I have, it feels like everything is dying. I mean it was might fault in the first place, I pushed them hard, But I was just afraid of letting down my guard. This is what I get for being scared of getting hurt, This has all made me so very alert. I'm such a fool, And you were cruel. I let him take advantage of me, Now I'm drowning in a sea. But it's not his fault I was so dumb, It's not his fault I've become so numb. I wonder how the ones I used to love would react, I bet they would look at me and cry since I'm so cracked. I wish I could say goodbye to all, But you would get mad and put up the wall. So instead I'll sit here and smile, Hoping I don't have to stay for much longer.

Ignored
Standing in your own light Creating yourself a shadow Now it’s too dark to see Wherever it is you’re going The light is fading fast And you’re all alone There’s no one there beside you To help you find your light again You can’t move out the way It’s too hard to do so You want someone to move you Send you in the right direction Out of the way of the light So you can see your path again

In Your Own Light
gaping wounds, wide eyes, steady streams of life trickling, draining my body of the happiness it once held. pain doesn't always have to be externally felt, does it?
