Hide

Do you see me as I am now?

I am no longer a child.

I have matured far beyond my true age.

My childhood just slipped away.

It never even had a chance to start.

I endured everything that has been thrown my way,

And I still press on to live.

No one could go through what I have and be sane.

I myself do not know how much sanity I have left.

So much pain to endure and all the suffering caused.

I had to see it all with these stupid eyes.

But now I should be thankful.

I am blind.

I can hide from everything,

From all the pain and sorrow

Hide until I die.
