Where Do You Go?

Where do you go?
When your home is not safe,
And you are so alone?
When the streets are cold,
And the buildings offer no sanctuary?

Where do you go?
When the arms of a stranger
Appear more comforting,
Then your “One and Only”?
When the lies of the heartless,
Make you uncaring of the danger?

Where do you go?
When your memories haunt you,
And your sleep is restless?
When alcohol doesn’t work,
And pills only makes it worse?

Where do you go?
When the line between reality
And fantasy blur, and no one notices?
When the thoughts in your head
Get so out of control, that you are
Desperate for any way to stop them?

Where do you go?
When your world falls apart,
And no one is there to catch you?
When you see your shattered life,
And realize no one will help pick up the pieces?

Where do you go?
What do you do?
How do you survive?

Tell me if you know,
Because I need to know.
Where do you go?

Or am I already there?
