Feeling Like There's Nothing Left To Turn Too

Feeling Like There's Nothing Left To Turn Too...
 I'm scared but I have to do this on my own,
 I just don't really know how to,
 May have alot of people in my home,
 But no one there to turn too,
 In my mind is where I feel most alone,
 Trying to figure out just what to do,
 All these thoughts running through my head,
 Constantly reminding me of what I've been through,
 Drinkin or Drugs to try and ignore the pain, 
But everyday it always comes back the same,
Wishing something could just take it away,
 Not knowing if I'm going to make it through the day,
 With all of this pressure weighing down on me,
 Makin it harder and harder to breathe,
 Wishing these harrassing thought would just leave,
 Because day after day taking a toll on my brain,
 Sooner or later I might go insane,
 May not even remember my name,
 But with what I've been through would that be such a shame,
 These days I've tried just about everything,
 Nothing out here can ever really mask the pain, 
Doing things just to numb me, 
Just to come back eventually, 
Drinking until I can't even see, 
And can still feel this pain deep inside of me, 
Everyone's telling me that I'll be just fine, 
Then why can't I figure out this puzzle in my mind, 
Laying in bed wondering if I'll be alright, 
It's my own thoughts that are keeping me up at night...

Beautiful writing, a sad piece that really makes you think. A sad reflection of reality for so many out there.
