Friends
There is a void I cannot fill.
It tears at me with a sharp force.
I am unable to fight back.
I am weak.
I am pitiful.
I am NOTHING.
Many fake smiles.
Too many promises not kept.
I try. Try. Try.
But, alas no hope.
No one knows.
No one cares.
I have been lost to a dark cruel world.
Oh, but when I met them I was refilled with hope!
Promises have been kept my love for them has grown,
I feel myself becoming stronger, in this fight against myself.
I now know there is light at the end of this tunnel.
Finally I have blossomed into the person I always faked and wished to be again.
And to think it all started with them!
