Quiet...a time alone.
Time to reflect on past events.
A time to think.
The past attacking you.

A time of pain.
Proof you're misunderstood.
A time to pace the floors.
A time to hurt.

Anguish without interruption.
A time for tears.
A time to cry inside.
A hated time.

A time of abandonment.
A time to know you are hated.
A time full of faces.
Voices, always voices.

A time to be sorry.
A time to reflect your worth.
A time to feel your loneliness.
Whispers, never ending whispers.

A statement you are not wanted.
Knowledge that you do not count.
A time to obsess about your failures.
A time to end it all.
