When the world seems to be falling
And it feels like no one has your back
You are not alone
Someone else is calling
Calling for strength
Calling for wisdom
Calling for help
So they can escape the world
And be at peace with themselves
So they can forget everyone
Who has done them wrong
Who has turned their back
And walked away
If you look
Closely
You can see the other side of the world

The author's comments:
People feel alone a lot of the time, but what they don't realize is they aren't the only one. There are other people out there who understand what it is like to feel alone and misunderstood. You are not alone.
