The Lost Soul

On the day I go you wont, see a smile because it is hidden. In all this pain and sorrow it is making me loose my mind. I don't know where my life is heading. I've been lost for to long. I just wish I could see that bright light again. As I sit here in the dark. Wondering why I stick around Nobody notices that all I do is cry on the inside. I'm starting to wonder why I can't escape the dark forest it just keeps going on as I'm in an endless attempt to escape. My guardian angel watches over me but sometimes I don't think that's enough. As you see I have lost my mind, I am going crazy I don't know how to get out of this forest. The darkness just follows me wherever I go. As I travel on my own I wonder what was best for me but I haven't found the right path yet. Everyone tells me its going to be okay but its not. They don't understand how much this is hurting me. Every night I sit here crying you just don't notice the tears. I feel so unloved, so ashamed. I know I've screwed up my own life but what you don't know is that I've tried to fix it. I just wish I could find my way out of this forest.
