Trust
Trust no one
You are alone
You came alone
You will go alone
Stay alone
Stay aloof
You are alone
No human no God no Angel will stand by you forever
Everyone just stands by you when it suits them
No one really cares
No one gives a damn
You are alone
You will be alone
But you need to pretend to be happy and engaged
Pretend you are enjoying the show they put on as if they genuinely care for you
The soft carpets the rugs the comfy chairs all the works, the silk clothes
But remember all this can be pulled out from under your in a second
You will be left alone
Get used to it
Stay alone stay within
Remember you are a fish you need to stay within
Stay underwater
The world outside looks colorful and tempting
But don’t trust it
It will lure you into its trap only to destroy you
Stay safe! stay within!
