Watching the sunset one night,
I felt alone, hollow and weak,
I know otherwise though,
But no matter how I fight these feelings stay the same.
None of it true, the words I was told,
But what am I to believe?
Am I to never worry? To never be afraid?
Should I just sit back and take it?
This is my only way to vent,
There's no other way to cope,
Some see this as pointless and a waste,
No one ever sees my dread of school,
Or the terror I hide in my eyes of my friends.
My stomach turns as Monday approches,
No place to hide or to stop tim it's tracks,
I crawl away to my room.
The only place safe, but never alone.
