The Words Without

Here I stand before a mountain 
of lies,
The words without say... “Get over it”

Trapped in a state of confusion
The words without say...“Move on”

Emotionally drained of energy, 
devoid of a purpose,
The words without say... 
“You're lazy”

Broken, dead inside,
The words without say... 
“Give to me as before”

Solace found in a distant mind, 
The words without say... 
“You're ignorant”

But... The words without say nothing to me,
They do not understand the pain of a sensitive man,
