There are days that seem like they will never end
When you feel all alone and in desperate need of a friend
Though people may surround you in your every day life
You can still feel isolated and it cuts like a knife
So many things in life can confuse and mislead
Every day is a trial of love, hate and greed
When loved ones die and leave you to mourn
You feel lost and angry, battered and torn
Thoughts, feelings and emotions all seem to collide
Causing you terrible pain deep down inside
You want to run from it all, but where would you go?
You can't escape how you feel, believe me I know
You can cry until there are no tears left to cry
But the hurt is still there and you just want to die
Things may seem to get better for a day here and there
Then reality creeps back in, it just is not fair
There are times when you ask yourself, "Why should I go on?
Would it be such a loss to the world if I'm gone?"
And though family and friends may miss you at first
In the long run would it still be for the best?
Is it wrong to have feelings like this in your heart
When there are so many different things tearing you apart?
I wish I had the answers to all of the questions above
I just pray that in time all may be healed by love
