All I Know

Sometimes I get lost in translation
Not able to comprehend what surrounds me
Stuck in the world of the unknown
Losing grip of reality
Not wanting to let go of what seems so true
For so much has been taken 
Can't bare to lose anymore
It's numbness that over comes this empty soul
Wanting to feel warmth
But unable to release the coldness of the hurt
For pain is all I've known
The only comfort I've known is the thorns in my back
For I've carried them for so many years
Not realizing that I've lost so much
Indulging in sorrow is all I've known
Reality seems to slip away
I lose my breath can't tolerate the pain
I lose myself in this emotion of rage
Not wanting to hate, I can't help myself
This is all I know
I don't know any better.....
