so this is what it's like
to cry till i'm empty
and put it all in a cup
for you to drink up
because it's life
and you need it to feel alive
everyone does.

driving down this same road
the one i swear i drove on
last year
deja vu
and i feel like ripping my hair out
because i'm come full circle
and you have't moved.

right now..
right now
i wish these words meant more
my life screams mediocre
that's not life
that's not living

is it possible
to have all the friends in the world
and not one.

Sometimes life seems empty .... it's our job to fill it up. Just enjoy !! We will be your friends. hugs, Chris

Great write!  And, one I can identify with.  Sometimes you feel deserted.  On your own little island - no one understands.  I've been there.  You conveyed that feeling wonderfully.  Cheers to you.  You're writing exquisitely well!
