Misery

By Fallen Girl

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

what do you do when the questions seem to out number the answers, when life is one big game of chance and you tremble as you take the next step. the future once so bright and clear now tarnished and bleak. when the defenses you've built overtake your heart and harden your soul. you feel lost, darkness surrounds you and you no longer have the will to begin again. what do you do when the cons out weigh the pros and you've given up on hope. feeling helpless and powerless to change anything, because the pain has taken hostage your dreams, emotions, and goals. you've been so broken by the journey that the final destination is just a place to rest your bones. too drained to fight, to painful to die, just stuck in limbo to scared to try. asking for help but no one is there, trapped for all eternity in your own misery. lacey* Written February 18th, 2002 © on Feb 17 2002 05:26 PM PST   18 • 0 • 1
