The Sufferer

I can see you are suffering deeply But you cannot escape your self-torture Subconsciously you are dependent on the pain And the joy your sorrow brings is what you live for But when the happiness is taken from you You cannot stand being alone with your own thoughts Your mind drives you on the brink of insanity Playing on your every emotion constantly Emulating false hope of glee and bliss But you are a simple person who has never asked for much All you want from life is a piece of joy Your desperation will soon sink in And no one will ever know the reason for your greatest sin
