when you've lived in the shadows for too long
you forget what the light looks like
you feel lost and unawarestuck in a corner with no one to help you get up, back on your feet
you try all you can to get out, but no one will have you
you're dirty
you're diseased
you're worthless
you're shit
as you scratch your way out, you fallin even further
the way your insides turn and twist you want to be dead
to some, you already are
to others; they never knew your name
rock bottom is never low enough
when you've lived in the shadows for too long
the emptiness swallows you
the darkness loves you
everything else rejects you
your own soul abandons you
and then you suffocate
and die alone
an outcast
