“There is nothing more dreadful than the habit of doubt. Doubt separates people. It is a poison that disintegrates friendships and breaks up pleasant relations. It is a thorn that irritates and hurts; it is a sword that kills.” -Buddha


I can't speak the words
I long to say
They can't come out
Without you here
No one knows the world we live in
No one wants to understand
Nobody knows me
Nobody knows how to
Covet understanding
I thought you knew
And you understood
But you turned on your heel
And left me alone again
Like the rest
They can't see me for who I am
And if they do
They think it's not real
But I am real
I'm not a ghost
I thought you could see me
I was wrong
Again
You're part of the herd
Forgetting those
Who long to see the world
Only seeing
The spin
And the events you let slip in
I see all
And more through you
You are my eyes
But now I'm blind
No purpose
No soul
No reason to live on
In sorrow
In tears
I've given up
Nothing is left
You shut my door
