Would you take my hand,
Lead me through the darkness,
Maybe follow through,
And take me back,
To where I used to be,
All those better times,
And better people,
What would they say to me?
If they saw what I've become;
I'm just an outcast,
A loner outcast,
Of course you don't care.

"Writing, I think, is not apart from living. Writing is a kind of double living. The writer experiences everything twice. Once in reality and once in the mirror which waits always before or behind."

Haha me again. I really like this one. I think there could be more to it though. Maybe something like: I'm nothing more then a memory of the old me; A shadow of that happy child. Just a suggestion but your piece is still good.
