Poetry
Where is the inspiration for each breath?
Somewhere deeper than I can see
Controlled by an inner part of me
A spark of something barely felt
Dissatisfied with the cards dealt...
What happened to my desire to live?
So fast was it here then gone
Not concerned with another dawn
Sucked away by lack of concern
Future too cloudy to discern...
Why am I compelled to stress?
Nothing better to do with my time
But to sit here and worry and whine
Doubled over and wringing my hands
Sick and suffering over failed plans...
When will my experiences give?
When they become positve in nature
As soon as I grow up and mature
After the pain of the past has faded
And old behaviors have been traded...
Will they just continue to take away?
If old habits persist, absolutely
If I don't make changes resolutely
As long as all things stay the same
And there will be no one else to blame...
Is the anguish inside going to end?
Not if I don't let it subside
Or if I continue to run and hide
The moment I face it head on
The sooner it will be gone...
Are those in my life going to stay?
HHalf have already ran for the hills
The other half hear my name and get chills
Anyone who sticks around must be crazy
Or wholly and genuinely loves me...
Why do I continue to pretend?
It's easier than facing life on its terms
Or taking control and being firm
I think that it will continue this way
Until I begin to kneel down and pray...
