Escape the World

This hatred I feel contained in my soul
Rips me apart day by day
I sometimes feel as if the world is against me
Why do I have to suffer so much?
Anger tears at my heart forever
Killing me more with each passing night
Too strong are my emotions
I cannot contain them inside
Running to hide from everyone I love
I'm not sure what to do anymore
Life is too confusing for me
Though it continues for years
I need to escape from the world
Save myself from torment and ridicule
Without these words to heal my mind
I would perish and be no more
Still, I wish these words could save my soul
