16 years gone how many more to go?
How many more years am I going to sit up at night wondering if it's worth it? How many more nights am I going to lie awake because I'm to scared to fall asleep and wake up in a day thats worse than the one before?
How many more days am I going to live in a world that seems to hate me?
How many more 8 hour days am I going to spend with people that don't understand that I have an illness? Or that this illness may have pills to help "control" it but not to cure it.
How many more days am I gonna spend thinking I'm useless in life?
How many more years are going to come and go until I feel safe?
