A truth, not the truth


I have this feeling inside,

 
It's there, that I can't deny,
 
I feel so confused,
 
I also feel used,
 
But worst of all I feel hurt,
 
Like I've been buried six feet into the dirt,
 
So I have a therapist? No,
 
Do I have any true friends? None that I know,
 
As a result I'm antisocial,
 
I try not to be colonial,
 
No instead I'm a goth,
 
I spend my days writing and listening to rock,
 
Although what people don't know is I enjoy who I am,
 
Even though I'm not my own friend.
 
So just leave me be.
 
And I'll waste away in the ocean, the sea.
