    We can pour our hearts out.But when no one is there to catch it.What’s the point? We can give away our love.But when no one wants it.What’s the point? We can offer to help those we love who are self destructive.But when they refuse it.What’s the point? God can allow us to awaken tomorrow.But what’s…

    Have you ever truly been alone?In a place where no one cares?In a place where you only have yourself?With no hugs waiting down the stairs?

    My breathings heavy,My tears run dry,My heart feels emptyAs another one dies.Over and over,The tragedies hit,The anxiety fills meI just don’t seem to fit.The world keeps spinningI’m breaking downNo one hears meNothing matters now.No more smilesNo more laughsJust silence and sadnessThat’s all that lasts.
