Do you ever clench your teeth so hard you could bite a rock in two?
Do you ever need to scream so loud that the mountains would crumble in an instant?
Do you ever wish you could have one person to truly confide in, but then realize that people only half live up to your standards and that you're truly alone in the world?
Do you ever cry yourself to sleep so hard that your face hurts the next morning?
Do you ever search for the right words to convey your feelings only to find that no word could truly express how you feel and you end up more depressed and crushed than you began?
Do you ever wish you could just live in your dreams and try in vain for the sleep that hardly ever comes?
Do you ever fall so deeply into despair that it's not the real you that converses with people daily? Like you know you're in there somewhere but you either can't, won't, or don't know how to bring yourself to the surface?
Do you try to tell yourself that it'll all be over soon, just to make yourself feel alright for the time being, but you really know that you will never stop being haunted?
Do you ever feel like no matter how hard you try to hold on, everything just seems to be slipping through your fingers?
Do you ever feel that the things you want most in life always seem to be just out of your grasp?
Do you ever feel like you are always waiting. Waiting for someone to care. Waiting for someone to call. Waiting for the other shoe to drop.
Do you ever feel - anything? Or everything.
