I cannot breathe but that's not new
my pain runs deep because of you
and if you cared perhaps you'd see
how deep the sorrow you're causing me
but today you live as if all is fine
this emptiness only consuming my mind
maybe tomorrow I'll breathe again
but I'll never be able to call you my friend
"So I became ill of affirmation, of the nay-saying of my stomach, not to mention my brain." Ralph Ellison - Invisible Man

Ignorance is never bliss
The ignorance of others is often the root of my pain. My soul is covered in the scars of other people's lack of knowledge, about me, about themselves, about the world. What they don't know does hurt me, does break me. And though I shall put myself back together again somehow, I will still be scarred. I will still carry the burden of another's ignorance. I will still be alone...
