By Myself
Folder:
Further Down the Mistaken Path As I look into the mirror, I see myself,
My blank stare silently looks back at me.
"Is this even me?" I ask myself,
I need to escape out of my decrepit cage and be set free.
Every second of my scarred existence, I force myself
To stay serene, but my body doesn't allow me to.
"I need to get out of this place," I think to myself,
I hate to be alone in this world, I really do.
But all I do is endlessly hurt myself,
Deep inside, someone is knocking on my internal door.
But I won't let myself
Answer it, and I collapse to the bloodstained, concrete floor.
Each and every day I put myself
In great and unnecessary danger.
"Why is life so cruel and unfair?" I quietly ask myself,
And to this opaque world I am a stranger.
God, I really hate myself,
And have lost every single brother and friend.
This is why I am always by myself,
And this horrendous pain will never come to a blissful end.
