Sometimes

Sometimes
Amongst a world of chaos, loss, anonymity, and pain
The thing you need the most is to be invisible
To no longer try to fit into it all
Into all the deceit,
The roles of society
The way we are told to be
To live
To love
Sometimes
We just need to fade into the crowd, the air
Sometimes
We need to get lost within ourselves
Just to prove that we are alive
To prove that we are more than we are labeled to be
To convince ourselves that we are only as good as we believe ourselves to be
Sometimes the life we have created for ourselves, the life that exists only within ourselves,
Is the only one worth living
Sometimes
Being alone is the only way to surround yourself with what you really want
In what you really believe is right
Sometimes to get what we need, we need to give up everything we want
Sometimes, what hurts the most is what we need the most
