Poetry Book: Songs from the Heart [COMPLETED]

so glad I stayed

Feel like I've stepped on a landmine
Need some fucking peace of mind
Don't wanna be alone anymore
Life is such a bore
When you live on the inside,
Trapped, in a sea of darkness and pain
Nothings ever the same
It's like I'm fading.... fading away
And no one cares
No one dares
To do a damn thing

No one sees me
As I am drowning
Not alright, I'm lost and it's astounding
How much pain I go through
Each and every day
I'm just done trying to please everyone
Be everyone's savior
When I can't even help myself
Let alone save myself

It's a dark, dark place that I've come to
Trapped inside, with no one to turn to
It's like I'm isolated from the truth
Kept ignorant of the uses
That I could have in daily life
All because of these pills keeping me alive

Medicine keeps me safe
Keeps me sane
But I'm so sick of the same
Same old shit, different day
I need to find a way
To break this monotony
To help me live happily
But I just don't know how to see it
Feel like I've been left behind

Kept in the dark, blind
While everyone else could see the beauty of life
I'm left all on my own,
Nowhere else to go
Nowhere to run
Are you ready for it?
Are you ready for it?

When the pains got you down
You gotta look inside yourself
Realize that you're gonna be alright
And that everything is okay
I know it's hard,
But someday, someday,
You'll look back on this day and say ....

... I'm so glad I stayed.
