Cost of Living

I had to die
but not on the inside
at least not completely 
that was my biggest fear
after everything
dying completely 
without knowing 
if I could feel 
the way I once felt
but now I know
I accept it 
forever grateful 
just for the opportunity
to feel something real 
not everyone can say that
but what's next 
there's no rebuilding 
no second chances 
for the third time 
my happiness lies in 
helping others feel
I just hope they don't make 
the same mistakes I did 
maybe this is why 
a part of us has to die 
so that we discover 
who we're truly meant to be 
but all I found was  
a pain that I wouldn't 
wish on anyone 
I guess it's the price I paid 
for expensive taste
