I want to feel alive instead of simply survive.

I want to feel real happiness rather than temporary relief.

I want to say mum I've made it but it's all just a dream.

I wish to quit feeling like a failure and a self-hater.

I seek temporary relief to try to disappear.

To forget the misery hidden inside seeking victory.

I want to feel alive change my behaviour and see life, unlike a jailor.

I want to feel alive to find a reason to survive...
