Stuck in the middle of nowhere
Trapped in a crater that was once my heart.
Feeling empty, starved of emotion.
There's no one around me to hear my desperate cries.
People may come and go but I'm invisible to their eyes.
The hole I've dug for myself is too deep--
my cries can not be heard.
How I long to climb out, climb over.
I long for just one person to hear my screams
and come rescue me from the pit of my depression.
The weight of my despair is suffocating--
I can not bear the weight of the pain that holds me here.
As I lay here dying and staring up at the bright night sky
I make one last wish--for peace for all those around me.
I hope that no one will ever feel
the pain, the misery, the despair, the utter depression
that has buried me deep, that has buried me alive.
