Leave Me Alone

By Jaded Jezzabelle

In the darkest hour
the stillness of the night
leads my mind astray
and
As I lay here I wonder
what or lives would be like
had we done everything right
Would my sol still ache for rain
as I live out in this desert
pretending to be
rocked to sleep by the hollow cries of thunder
shattering in the distance
Would I still feel this hopeless and bleak
heartache and regret
constantly consume me
as I watch
my family cop out
by assuming Im just a freak
and
blame my issues on all the tweak
I do
They want me to turn around
go another route
yeah right
this road I've chosen only goes one way
and
theres no such thing as a uturn
I don't know what all the fuss is about
my heads filled with doubt
if my heart had a voice
it would shout
FUCK YOU
I'VE ALREADY MADE MY CHOICE
WHEN I DIDN'T HAVE A CLUE
yesterday is from what I learn
only I don't know whats real or imagined anymore
Lost in the smoke
feelings
I must conceal
like dope
so shut the door and
lock it
pretend I'm not home
in hopes that everyone
will fucking leave me alone

    Certain parts of this lead me to believe you truly don't want to be left alone. However, your frustration is not without reason. Good luck sorting out these thoughts.
