Dear RM, 

To not feel alive... yet breathing...

To not feel pain... Yet shattering...

Just who am I? Who am I to you and who am I to myself?

Why was it like this? Why was I feeling so empty? These streets? Where did they all lead? Everything is dark here, no one seems to care... It was as if I was all alone in these forsaken back lands.

But...

It feels calming... As if I am the ruler of this world... As if I was finally in charge of my life... As if I were King...

I sighed once more as I reopened my eyes and was momentarily blinded by the sun's early light. It's blinding rays pierced every corner of my skin as if I were stung by countless bees...

Dear RM, 

Why are we living? What is the purpose to this life?

Everyone seems to be following a path. The path may not be set in stone, yet they still have a path to follow...

But what about me?I have no path to follow. I walk along aimlessly looking for a glimpse of this "path", yet I see none...

Is there no path for me? Is there no purpose to the life that I am living? Am I just a waste of space living on this planet because of someone's mistake?... They think I was...

To them, they had to give up their dream? Just because of me...

Just because I was born?

Was it my fault?

"I live because I can't die"

Those words never felt truer than they do now, yet the meaning they had are different than what they initially were meant to be... I'm living because I am to cowardly to die, yet too cowardly to move on... I am stagnant...

Do you know how painful it is to be this way? To be so empty... To live a life so empty with no goal? With no path to follow... With no purpose?

Do you know how painful it is to walk amongst the living as if a ghost?

You continue to belittle me by comparing me to your friends... Those that were born with silver spoons in their mouths. You continue to call me a disappointment, thinking only of your face, yet do you even try to understand me?

Whenever I liked something you would say that it was not plausible. That my "dream" was nothing more than a child's fantasy... That the hope I had was just what a child living in a "fantasy world" would say...

As time passed and I continued down this pathless void, I found myself losing my identity.

Who was I? Why was I here? Was there a purpose for me living? Or should I vanish into this void for good? Should I let this void consume me as I fall into the abyss?

Will I find peace then? Happiness?

" I live because I can't die"...

Yes, that is true...
