Home, alone

been a little while since I posted here, home alone. Watching Spiderman 2. heard a song that I wanted to write it down, seemed to fit.



"you tried so hard to be someone, that you forgot who you are. you tried to fill some emptieness till all you had spilled over. now everythings so far away that you don't know where you are. all that you wanted, and all that you had, don't seem to much, for you to hold on to. "
