Life


THIS LIFE THING

 

 

What's with this?

 

This Life thing?

 

It's so Confusing

 

It takes us Up and Down

 

In and Out

 

Reverse and to the side

 

And all we can do is go along for the Ride

 

I HATE IT!

 

This Life THING

 

I wanna cry so Bad

 

But Tears won't come

 

I wanna leave everything behind

 

But my Feet won't run

 

They're planted firm in this spot

 

Where

 

All I can do is Watch

 

Watch other people Live Life

 

While I'm just Waiting for IT

 

To be done with ME
