In this life we have so many problems that we cannot solve.
Our problems threaten to consume us, and depression wants us to just to end it all.
People hate us and others don't understand us, as we walk our lonely paths.
Nothing is as it seems and everything that is a lie can be the truth.
A life is worthless to one, but can be priceless to another who is dying.
To end your life is to let another down, one who cares for you and your happiness.
Getting up every day can be so hard that you feel as if you just end it, everything will be okay.
So much has happened in your life, that you feel as if you're worthless,
No one should have to share your pain, why burden them with it?
Together we are strong, but alone we have to be strong only for ourselves.
Those in the shadows try to escape the confines of their prisons only to not escape.
Others, who try to step into the light, can stay, but others are destroyed just by the act of trying.
Some, who make it, just end up right back in the shadow lands again.
Life can be so complicated sometimes, and we struggle to just stay a float.
Nothing is as it seems in this dark place that our souls occupy.
We never realize what we have until we have lost it all.
Never do we apologize until it is too late and they are gone.
Never do let someone close because they might just end up hurting us again.
Never do we realize that being alone is not okay, that we are just causing ourselves more pain.
As I've sat here, I've thought about all of these things;
And I've realized that no one gets to choose who lives and dies.
No one is worthless, and our lives are ours alone.
No one should be able to take that from us.
Not even us.
ANother old one, spring cleaning anyone??
