Valediction


I feel neglected by the hearts that surround me,

I'm trying to use my words to communicate

But nothing seems to appear

 

I feel so vacuous with no one to call friend,

The feelings I once had have turned to rancourous and fear

Everyone I trusted have betrayed me

 

No one cares about my experience

Nobody will even notice my transitory,

Living in a world with no love is inevitable.

 

And with no other words left,

I see sudden darkness,

The skies are lucid and I'm floating in thin air

I yell when no one care hear me

I scream names of people who don't know me,

Help me, help me, I can't see!

 

Then I have a moment of clarity,

No one loves me...

This is where I should be.

Gone from the world I once dearly cared for

I just hope someone out there heard when I said my valediction.
