The air is so acrid in here

It is much more worse on the outside

The world is unforgiving to someone feeling like they’re lesser than everyone else

Every step outside makes me feel like a human debris

The lowest form of unworthy

No one mentioned this will be hard

Reached out but there’s no one really

Watched the last one bailing out

Can’t blame them of course

No one wants to hang around filth

Couldn’t even bring myself to tell them they were the last piece holding everything in place

There’s no hope here

No belonging in this place

Just years of emptiness

Of being lost

Of craving

Of wanting to die

Of being damned
