You may leave my side, but you will never leave me...

Thunderstorms and skies of gray march in threatening to let the rainfall, yet I never let it.

Alone, I sit with many,
Alone, I sit in distance,
Alone, I feel surrounded by a crowd.

Why do I scream, when I won't be heard?
Why do I scream when nobody ever hears, their ears not strong enough to hear the silent cries of a child by looking into their eyes.

Why do I lie?
Why do I lie, and say 'I'm Fine'.

Screaming silently for a savior in this world to explain how I am not alone but why it feels so.
A savior that will show me how to feel again, how to love again, to smile and laugh again.
A savior that will show me how to cry again, how to dance, to sing again.

Life is but a mystery, thinking you have the answer only to be deceived.

"You don't know"
"You will never know"
I hear them say.

Well, you never know that silence is violent until your words are left unheard and ignored.
Until you become a ghost to your peers, a mistake to humanity, wanting to cry but keeping that head held high, despite wanting to quit and how many people in the halls tell you to die.

But in reality, the world doesn't care until you die.

... So, don't give them the satisfaction.
