Sad Sorrows
When I close my eyes,
I can't help but want to die.
The pain I feel cuts deep,
Why Lord why do I feel so weak?
Tears running down my face,
I just want out this dark place.
Been here for a couple years now,
I just want to be freed...somehow.
I can't tell all because they say, "be happy"
But how can I when I feel so crappy?
I have struggling friends I did nothing for,
Oh do I wish I did much more.
My heart longs to assist,
But I feel like the love doesn't exist.
I want love in return,
When will it finally be my turn?
Oh Lord what do you want from me?
When will I be able to escape this choppy sea?
I want that overwhelming happiness,
But I suppose it's not my time...I guess.
