Internal Epaphan

Alone is for now. 
Forever means nothing. 
Love isn't real.
The world seems to kick you when you're down.

Loneliness can be the happier thing you will ever know.
Forever  is just a fairytale.
Love only happens in the movies.
The world just turns everyone against you.

Why try to be with others?
Why try to find the one who you will spend forever with?
Why try to fall in love?
The world will take all that away from you.

The pain is here.
The pain is real.
The pain is the only thing
that will keep you grounded.

Don't try to explain.
They won't listen.
All they care about 
is their own happiness.
