Time passes by,

As I lay on the floor,

Continuing to cry and cry.

I wish I knew who I was,

And why I collapse so easily,

And turn to dust.

Why I wasn't accepted,

I dont know.

But once I realized this,

The tears began to flow.

I lose hope so quickly,

Sometimes I lay on the floor,

Wishing I could die.

I have no self confidence at all,

I doubt myself too much,

I think Im too shy.

Its like my shelter is gone.

I want to dissapear,

I just want to run.

Away from all this.

This world.

This pain.

All of it.

I want it to go away.

But it just seems to take longer,

To fade.

I feel cold inside and out.

More of it grows within me.

The numbness.

All the doubt.

Help me understand.

Why am I so unstable?

Why do I fall,

When I want to stand?

No matter how much I try,

Its not enough.

Its like they're saying Im weak.

Im not tough.

I need to change.

Thats always the deal.

I know they care.

But my hope is what they steal.

Im a cold still stone.

What I was before,

Has been torn.

Now I have to take the time.

To find the pieces,

And figure out this life.
