The Quiet Burden
I am so alone yet too full of myself inside
my thoughts scream at me constantly leaving me nowhere to hide
I feel I break everything I go near, would it be better if I disappeared?
Would they be smiling? Would they be glad? Am I really just a weight on everyone I have?
A burden to them and a burden to me, maybe alone is really what I'm meant to be.
I have no right to the sunshine or even a warm hug, I will slowly fade away in this cold hole I've dug.
May you find a happier place without my dark cloud, maybe it's better that I'm no longer around.
