Tainted Glory

Have you ever felt so lonely,
that everything seemed black?
Have you ever been so afraid
that you couldnt take a look back?

Ever been so sorrowed,
with all the happy peers,
as you watched them say -Congrats!-
and give a welcome -Cheers!-

Have you ever felt so distant
you felt like a world away?
That -other side of the glass- feeling;
that makes everything so gray.

Ever felt so angry,
that you wanted to tear your skin?
Rip it apart from the bones
to remove it from within..

Have you ever felt so trapped,
so confined and barred inside;
To where you felt your only escape
was a way of suicide?

If you know these feelings,
welcome to my story.
The summed up version of my life-
in all its tainted glory.
