Why do I hunger for justice, for love, I can’t keep this emptiness inside, this void annoys pulling me under I cry in pain, I gain nothing and I wonder, Why do I find comfort in turning away from the beliefs instilled upon me It’s so much easier to ignore the teachings before me To live as if it doesn’t matter who I hurt,...

You may marvel at my strength; Such fortitude is often rare But all alone late at night, I sink into despair. The child will not let me sleep. She needs the comfort of her mother.

WHAT HURTS THE MOST? When you tell someone you don't feel good still they leave you in that statehood that moment made me realize I was in falsehood because being too good is not so good. When the one you love never acknowledges your pain that moment makes you feels like you are nothing but a vain the day...
