My Awaited Journey

I've never felt so empty
Wanting to chase the horizon
A never ending quest to escape
From everything anyone did to me
My words that I can't stop flowing
That seem to drive people mad
The things people have said to me
People I consider my friends
The poison my family have spit at me
Will there ever be an end?
But for now I have to wait
Until my journey can begin
And once I've made my first step
You'll never see me again

This sounds like someone I know who is loved so much but doesn't believe it. Good writing.
