Returned

He has smiled for long enough,
Pretend for too long,
Tried to be nice too much,
He's had enough.

One man can only take so much,
Until he loses, until he breaks.
He's paid for everyone's prices.
He's carried everything until he snapped.

And now he's falling,
Fading away and no one cares.
Silent noises whispering,
None daring to save him.

It was all okay for him,
There was nothing left anyway,
The world already finished his use,
And now they cast him aside.

He arrives at the abyss,
The door to the other side.
The turning point of no return,
Such a bittersweet mixture of feelings.
