Mainstream



Mainstream Pain
I See This Pain All Around Me,
No Longer  Just  A Selected Few
WE Are Now The Majority.
My Feelings Swarm, Suffering Has Become The Norm.
Every Where I Look Others Have There Pain On Display, Just Trying To Make it Through The Fucking Day.
Clawing There Way, Trying Not To Break,
Trying To Convince Themselves There Not A Mistake.
It Hurts & Makes Me Want To Cry,
So Many Feeling It Would Be Easier To  Just Die.
In Deep Waters Struggling Not To Drown,
I Offer My Hand To All Who Are Sinking Down.
I Am Constantly Talking To Myself,
To Increase My Strength & Heal My Mental Health.
I Must Be Strong & Stay Within This Zone,
Others Out There Need Me & I'm No longer In This Fight Alone.
My Life Of Struggle & Pain , Can Show Another Just How Much There Is Too Gain.
That There Pain Is  A Message Of Hope As Well,
The Strength & Hope We Gained Walking Through Hell.
This Vision is Real, Not Fantasy Or A Dream.
There Are More Of Us Then Them As Our Pain
Has Become Mainstream...
DONT GIVE UP
