Save Yourself

The moment that last strand of confidence disperses,
And the creativity that was once there is deemed useless,

When you're stranded in your own meaningless thoughts,
And have but an island of insanity to hold your lot,

Once despair seems to be the only thing you receive,
And when you attempt to gain by exhaling the sorrow for others to conceive,

When you wish for sympathy and plead toward those smiling faces,
Only to witness the betrayal as they step back a few paces,

It won't be long until you finally realize,
That you are the only one who can answer your craving cries.
