The Darkness is creeping in closer and closer
Until it swallows me whole.
What have I done to deserve this?
This endless misery, pain, and sadness;

When will it end?
When can I stop being someone who I am not?
When will they realize I am not who they think I am?
Will they leave me behind and pretend I never existed?

Of being who I am not.
Can someone help tear down the walls
That I have spent so long building up?

Or must I drown in the darkness threatening to surround me
To sink into the darkest...
