Pain in solitude

Echoes from the depths of isolation

Alone once more, lost in the past,

Can't recall how long it's last.

No one to trust, no one to care,

Though smiles are plenty, it's all a snare.

Will I ever find a friend so real?

Will I ever heal or truly feel?

Always alone, misunderstood,

Longing for change, if only I could.

I wish the pain would fade away,

To trust again, to feel okay.

To be surrounded by those I trust,

A happiness that’s more than just.

It’s not the trust that I can’t find,

But being good enough in my mind.

"Good draws good," they often say,

Bad repels—it’s life’s own way.

So I must be true, I must stand tall,

To rise above and break the wall.

To fight the feelings that I fear,

Alone again, but I’ll persevere.
