Being broken Quote by Anonymous
“Inside...I feel alone and been left out, full of sadness and loneliness, a feeling that slowly consuming my life and killing my soul...The only way to cover the pain and helps to survive is for me to keep on smiling, find ways to cheer up myself and loves to laugh out loud...this makes me who I am...Restricting me from doing this feels like living in the dessert all alone and killing me quickly...”
