Worst Case Scenario (For Him)
There’s a point beyond which there is no returning. Although at times such a place can seem tempting, it must be avoided. The desire to escape everything at all costs can be truly overwhelming. Where is that point for Him? How does he end up there? How can someone catch him? Is there such a thing as “too far gone?” I hope not…
The loudest cry always comes from the voice that's quietest
The voices in his head are context to the quietness
His silence is a scream- an S.O.S.
But his writing finds him peace in a world so riotous
There's no silent nights in a place with no lights
More than his venting, it's his method to the madness
Writing out what remains unspoken-
Looking at himself trying his hardest to fix what isn't broken
It's evil what this world has done to him-
Sinful, how people think of him
But will never be sighted in the open- only cited by his ink pen
Effects of constant gaslighting sinking in
Like igniting a fire in the basement
To so plainly say he's misunderstood would be an understatement
Too often faced with the choice between being himself and fitting in
Opting in offing his own voice thinking hiding is his only and safest option
But heat hidden from the world is still sure to burn bridges
He's left unaccepted so he stays uninvolved
Years and years of loneliness
But he cant speak about the tears that ran down through such a time
How is it that he's never heard "I love you" once in his life
He's not too convinced of the existence of a future with a wife
"If no one's loved me before what'll be different now"
Intrusive thoughts are like a flash flood in his mind
What's omitted from his speech is hidden in the text
His worst case scenario
What I hope to never write about
