The Pit I've Stumbled Into

I've stumbled into a pit, you see

I've fallen deep into a hole

Yet no one seems to notice I'm gone

I was never a fill to their full

I need a helping hand right now

But it appears no one is there

You say you understand my pain

But it's a game of "pretend to care"

I've found a couple roots to hold

I've tried to pull up my own

Yet every time I find a boost

My weaknesses are shown

I need someone to hear my screams

But they're ringing out unheard

You turn your back when I'm in need

When for your friendships all I yearn

I've fallen down upon my face

I've suffered what will be scars

Yet the wounds go unattended

Placing the same heart in separate jars

I need to be strong, as strong as I can

But I can't even stand on my feet

So I ask you now to carry me

To be perseverance amidst my defeat
