IT'S NOT EASY TO BE ME
DISAPPOINTMENTS AND MISSED OPPORTUNITIES WEIGH ME DOWN LIKE AN ANCHOR, KEEPING ME STUCK IN THE SAME PLACE, WHICH FEELS LIKE AN ETERNITY.
THE FEELINGS OF GUILT AND SHAME I CAN'T SHAKE OFF, POWERLESSNESS OF THINGS THAT I CAN'T CHANGE.
AS MY BODY WITHERS AWAY, SO DOES MY MIND.
MY BEST MEMORIES SLIP AWAY, WHILE THE WORST ONES REMAIN EMBEDDED IN MY THOUGHTS.
THE ACHES AND PAINS RADIATE THROUGH MY BODY, AND THE EMOTIONAL TRAUMA AND SCARES ONLY EXACERBATE THE ONE THING THAT I KNOW TO BE TRUE: PAIN, LONELINESS, AND ABANDONMENT.
FINDING MYSELF ALONE WITH NO ONE AROUND, WITH MY LIFE IN CHAOS AND DISARRAY, SEEMS TO BE THE STATUS QUO.
