I was never really popular in school.

I scare people.

My cold expression makes them crumble.

It's what makes them afraid of me and therefore hate me.

I don't have friends and I keep telling myself that I don't need any.

I'm an only child and live with my mother.

My dad left us after he had cheated on my mom with another woman.

We're alone and my mom has to work hard everyday to keep us afloat, meaning I am always alone, at school and at home.

The loneliness doesn't bother me but sometimes when I have too much time, I start thinking.

I start thinking about how crappy my life is.

How it always feels strange when I talk because I'm not used to hearing my own voice.

How everyone seems to have at least one friend except for me.

How I don't deserve happiness.

How it would feel like if I just cut my throat with the knife lying beside me.

I am depressed and I know it.

I have all the symptoms yet no one is there to notice them.

But then, you came into my life.

You distracted me without even uttering a word to me.

I want to know everything about you even though I already know it all.

You're just like me.

Cold.

Lonely.

But, there's one difference.

You're bright and I'm dark.

You exist without any attachments while I only exist with you.

You're my owner and I'm your shadow.
