Searching for a way out

Alone with my thoughts
The silence is deafening
A room so silent
Yet it's never been louder
Confined to the depths of my mind
Trapped amongst what's found inside
Searching for a way out
Seeking any sort of distraction
Only to remain alone
Trampled by these thoughts
Ignored by those who heard my cry
Left to drown in my sorrow
Somehow I'm always on my own
When I need people the most
I should be used to it
Yet instead I just feel helpless
Constantly running, trying to get away
Afraid to face what's down inside
I just want it to end
For these voices to disappear
Supposing it could lead to a better me
If only I could face reality
Maybe then I'd finally be free...
