Family Quote by Angel_eyes
“Have you ever felt so alone, even though you were surrounded by friends and family? You get so self absorbed into your own world your afraid to let anyone in forcing yourself into a lonely ibis. And then the one thing that keeps you feeling whole is taken from you. Now there's no one to talk to & nothing to fall back on so you're drowning in your own loneliness.”
