Somewhere I Belong

Description

"I want to heal

I want to feel

What I thought was never real

I want to let go of the pain I felt so long

(Erase all the pain 'til it's gone)

I want to heal

I want to feel

Like I'm close to something real

I want to find something I've wanted all along

Somewhere I belong."

I thought about not posting this, but here goes anyway.
Guess you could call this vent art.
I'm the last person I expected to do this kind of stuff, but here I am - doing it.
Maybe I'm just letting it get to me too much, maybe I've got too much heart for one body.
But...
Depression hurts me more than just simply being depression.
I've grown accustomed to my depression, because...once upon a time, I hit rock bottom, but I managed to climb back up.
What I can't handle is the pain of other people.
I know, I know - why on earth do I let other people's problems bother me?
Well...because they're PEOPLE.
Like you, like me.
And it's these same people, constantly slitting their wrists, committing themselves to eating disorders...these people who've hit rock bottom and can't find their way anymore.
I've cried over family, over friends.
I've cried over complete strangers.

I'm crying now because I feel helpless.
People are in need of something, anything, that could save their lives.
And every day, that something doesn't make it in time.

I don't know how to explain it - I just feel their pain.
I've done the things they do, and...knowing that they, too, are helpless...
People killing themselves...
Another soul departing from the world...
Just like blowing out a candle.
So trivial - and yet so much more meaningful.

I don't even know what I'm trying to say with this.

Human lives are fragile...
You only get one.

Please...
Just don't let yours end without giving it a chance to change.
