The Way It Is

Have you ever felt as if life is just not worth it?

Like this pain and struggle is all for nothing?

Have you ever just felt disappointed in the people around you?

As if they don't really understand you?

That the pressures that society exerts on you could one day tear you to pieces?

That you just can't take it anymore?

The nagging feeling in your sub-conscience telling you that you are not living your own life

How could you when others have already defined who you are?

When others expect something of you?

That no one even cares enough to try to understand how you feel?

That songs, books, paintings just seem to speak to you in a language that means so much more to you than the words of people who you actually know?

That sometimes you just need someone to understand?

That people aren't even trying to look past your perfectly fine exterior to see the broken person behind it?
