I've existed never seeing the Light
Never thought that life would be this hard
All I know is I'm alive with no reason
A lost soul that cannot be find.

In this world I don't belong
Trying to be one
Separated from the rest of the world
Living without anything and anyone.

The knives of man
Are going deep into my heart
And going straight into my bones
And I'm falling apart.

As the tears comes out in my eyes
As my mind starts to explode
My heart breaks in pieces
I am going to implode.

What a miserable life it is
To live a life full of agony
To live a life of despair
A nightmare that kills me slowly

The world is turning black
Now All I can see is infinite darkness
And the sorrow it brings
Makes me live in secludedness.

It'll creep up on you like a silent killer
It'll start with the tired eyes even after you've been awake for hours
Then you'll be moody and snap at those you love
Then come the tears
You'll cry over everything and anything and you don't know why
Last comes the self hatred
The secludedness
The lonliness
And you'll try to surrond yourself with people just so you're never alone
You're afraid of yourself
And you keep getting high so you'll never feel low
Because you're afraid
You're afraid that once you're back to your lowest low
You'll end it all

Brilliant...
I thought I wanted this
secludedness,
but most birds don't fly
without their flocks.
Repeatedly,
I am taking off.
I'm journeying to mountain tops.
I say my dears, I'll be back
When I find the shell
that hides my prize,
only to wonder why I am lost
caging myself from  
passing life.

There was a time when love
Would’ve mattered to me
When it came to us
When it came to building
A formidable family
Bringing up our kids
The right way
So they would never
Sway like rhythm
Of lone tall trees

But you were never around
To help raise your children
You left me here in secludedness
In this home we once called our own
You chose to walk away
From your responsibilities
As a father, had me working
And searching for a way
To make ends meet
For my kids and me

And when I attempted
To ask you for money
To help with the essential needs
Of our little ones, you overlooked
Everything I said
I was nothing to you
I was no more than
Dead leaves drifting
To far removed places
You didn’t stop to acknowledge
Your children, how they needed
Daily attention, clothes on their body
Shoes on their feet, food to eat

I was the woman who had
To step up and take control
Of things, provide a peace-loving
Environment for my young ones
I was the one who worked
Strenuous hours at my job
Laboring day and night
Nearly aweary, but trying
To remain weariless
Because I knew I had
To fulfill my role
As a mother and give
My boy and girls
All the love and happiness
They required

I wanted to be resentful of you
How you could neglect
Your flesh and blood
When you were supposed
To protect them
When you were supposed
To teach them the way
Provide to them your perception
Of life, demonstrate to them
On how to be strong
How to truly love each other

You may never change your ways
But I thought you needed
To know how I feel about
All of this, how it has been
On my mind every single day
So heartbreaking to believe
That it happened to me
That I had to stand strong
And do both motherly
And fatherly duties
Let my kids know that
I would always love them
That they never had to be
Concerned about anything
I was here for them
I wouldn’t run out on them

Someday, when they grow up
I know they will ask about you
They will want to know
Why you were never around
Why you couldn’t spend time
With them, why you never
Picked up the phone to call them
I hope when that day comes
You are reminded of when
I asked you to be a part
Of their life, that I was willing
To work things out with you
So we could raise our kids together
But you didn’t want any part of that

— The End —
