Being an empath and worked with so many troubled souls like myself. Part of this writing is true Maybe and sadly, you can relate and understand, if so you're not alone. Life is a journey tomorrow is not guaranteed Sometimes expectations are just too high, and things don't always go to plan. So live life, as if today was your last kind to others we might not always understand, or ourselves. But spread your love every day to everyone don't judge, Everyone needs laughter fun, a shoulder to cry on and sometimes a helping hand.

Another empty bottle Another lonely night Slave to my cursed mistress And her commands and demands She holds my uncertain future Tightly In her hands Although I had no right to choose And I didn't quite understand At war with her the world and myself A battle I have to face every single day Drink may help soften the blow But it can't heal a broken heart Or rebuild your world when everything Falls apart We all have secrets And lonelyness can force you To go to places You rather not want to be But everyone has needs They need to feed I used to Play the wild card And just lived for fun and today Life was dragging me down fast And instead of facing it I chose o run away Partied hard Threw caution to the wind Spen my money on liquor And pretty women That I had to pay And after a bit fun She soon showed me the door She no longer wanted to know me And didn't even ask my name It left me feeling Ashamed of my self But a man without a woman Still wants a bit and taste the apple And a bit of loving sometmes We all have our own needs But after they showed me the door I Felt even lonelier then I did before To be continued soon. Sorry Computer problems

Hi.it's not all true, I don't drink that much. But I used to. The loneliness and despair are true.So sorry, you have been through so much too. But it's only when you have been, through so much you finally understand, and express emotions your thoughts and feelings as we do.Thank you.
