a message for those who feel a burden on others.

One needs to walk on glass

With feet that are bare

Watch people pass

Knowing they don't care

One needs to drift and fall

With nothing to grasp

Reaching for nothing at all

On which to clasp

One needs to feel total rejection

Hatred from the human race

Resent and refuse all affection

To look death in the face

Before one begins to realise

You are alone as you wish to be

It is only in your eyes

The picture you are not free

One needs to look toward the light

To see without and not within

And notice others in their plight

Before healing can begin

One needs to feel inner love

For who and what you are

Made by some creator above

Who can and will heal the scar

Beautiful poem, especially the last paragraph, I know there must be a proper word for that, but I truly enjoyed it and believe it to be true.
