I've never felt so alone
As though I'm lost
Yet no one tries to find me
I despise myself
Or maybe just the girl that I've become
When I look at myself
Sometimes I feel as though I'm trapped
I can't escape from this body
I don't understand how I got trapped in the first place.
I wish I could be myself
The girl I really am
Who is she though?
Is she as dead as I think she is?
She's been gone for so long
And it's getting colder and colder
When I dream, it's not about myself
It's about a forest somewhere far away
It's very dark and the air is freezing
I'm running, yet I go nowhere
I'm screaming, yet no sound comes out
I just know I'll die.
Then I wake up
And wish that I had.

Oh Raven..this is deeply sad..I do hope that your feelings if this pertains to you, are better. Remember that you're never alone, and we are all here. I too have felt trapped inside myself..its a very lonely thing.
