The Worst

THE WORST

There’s something worse than feeling sad, something worse than feeling blue.

There’s something worse than feeling had and knowing you’ve been used.

There’s something worse than feeling scared, worse than feeling all alone.

There’s something worse than feeling sick and lying far from home.

There’s something worse than feeling hated; feeling no one’s on your side.

There’s something worse than humiliation and being stripped of pride.

There’s something worse than to feel despair, something worse than feeling small.

What could it be worse than these things…feeling nothing inside at all.
