Forever It Seems
You still can’t decide what it is that makes you
Feel this way. You sit in your room alone looking
For encouragement in all the places you know deep
Inside you won’t ever find them. You contemplate
Your sins and the sins of everyone you love or did
Love at one point and you can’t help but ask yourself,
“Is it really worth it?”
So that’s the question you keep in the back of your
Mind as you painstakingly fight through each day, just
Looking for something to keep you sane. But it seems
Like all anyone can do anymore is let you down. The
People closest to you, the people you love, and the
People you look up to. It’s a never ending, vicious circle
Of disappointment and you’ve reached your breaking
Point. So as you stand at the edge of that cliff and look
Down into what seems like forever, you take a deep
Breath before you answer that nagging, lingering
Question.
