A Little Too Much

There it is! I hope it's not too cliche or anything. XP
I believe in that, which is not seen.
I call it truth, faith, hope, life.

You have only yourself to blame you never walked away
Yes, it has a really long title!

Surviving You

Be warned. This is very sad and heavy stuff and is going to require a lot of concentration to interpret. However, there are many different interpretations you can get besides the "literal" one. My suggestion would be not to skim or read when tired.
