Isolation

In the past, life seemed so clear,
Every day I could walk without the fear
These chains have come and trapped my soul
This pain's not done, it's a bottomless hole

I miss the days, I could just be myself
When the stress, wasn't affecting my health
When I was strong enough to ask for help
But out of fear I stay to myself

You see, I can't get hurt from such a distance
And if I do, it's a small existence
Instead of my tides pulled by the force of the moon,
Surface scratches that'll heal real soon

It takes so much strength to do it alone,
But it's not as bad as trusting unknowns

At least like this, I can keep the damage contained
It won't bleed out, but instead it's detained

The weight of the world, I hold alone
So when people leave there's no need to atone.

So I'm sitting here, in my isolation,
The painful silence, my consolation.
Behind my curtain I can be myself,
So all that's left is to say farewell
