It is a cold world in which we live in,
dark as the blackest night all the time.
A man put me here to be alone,
he said I have to get strong on my own.
But as if a monster under the bed,
he would sneak out to scare me.
Now I jump to every noise,
while he laughs at his success.
I cry to him, "I want out!!"
He replies, "But who takes your place?"
No one could ever take me away,
who wants to live in a hidden cave?
I'm stuck here in the dark,
cornered by my personal fears.
I want to believe the grass is greener,
But he dares to get meaner.
It gets harder to keep this life here,
but I want to go by God way up there.
So I let myself stay siting here alone,
thinking I wouldn't wish this on anyone.
No, please don't try to save me,
I'd rather wait for him to grow bored of me.
You cannot stay here in my place,
and understand I wouldn't go if you tried.
My cries are growing shorter,
because my body is numb to it.
I laugh now at what he is trying to do,
he was much more clever before.
See now, I am going to be okay,
there is no need to worrying over me.
I am adjusting to live in the dark,
Ca
Author notes
This one was actually about a person that was my friend but then decided to turn their back on me and in literally their words "hate" me. The person started to steal close friendships and spread half truths of what I said so that people turned against me almost as if she didn't want me to have anything to be in town for. Although I wrote this months ago and thought it would be temporary this person now two hours away is still "out to get me" (so to speak). But fortunately I have learned to keep a smile on my face and not let them feed of my emotions.
