fate

I’m surrounded by people 
Only I feel so alone
A world where my thoughts overtake
Every last bit of hope in side me 
Seeks for an escape
I get constant flashbacks of my past
Bursts of happiness that don’t seem to last

I scream for help
But I don’t think anyone can hear
I fear the closeness of the demons near
The thoughts echoing in my head 
All day long
Telling myself I got this
I’ve got to stay strong

I have days where I have enough
But I’ve tried 
I’ve wiped away my tears
After I cried
I just want to see the light
To escape the darkness of the night 
Life is a battle for me
Who knows what my fate will be.
