Current State


Slipping away are the feelings I held, 

The hopes, desires, and dreams I confidently yelled. 

 

It’s as if now I’m stuck in a dark place,

To where my heart is shattered and my minds become erased. 

 

My souls been transformed into an anchor that’s dragging me down, 

I keep trying to swim even though I know I’ll eventually drown. 

 

Now stands a body which is trying to finish the race, 

Instead it looks like I’m digging a hole which could eventually burry my mistakes.
