Living Half-Dead


Life is too cruel for me,

Death is too nice for me,

So I’m living half-dead,

Life is too sad for me,

Death is too good for me,

So I’m living half-dead,

Life is too difficult for me,

Death is too easy for me,

So I’m living half-dead,

Life is too hard for me to go on,

Death is too soft for me,

So I’m living half-dead,

Life is too weak for me to hang on,

Death is too strong for me to escape from,

So I guess I’m stuck living half-dead.

I have been writing poetry for 5 years now and I have a collection of over 600 original poems I've made. I submitted a poem to Appelley Publishing and was published in the 2018 addition of their poetry book. I love to read and write, and I have a cat and a hamster.
