what do you do

By ninetnine

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

what do you do? when hate becomes the rule not the exception when you find yourself thinking things you never thought you would when life becomes a chore and your soul becomes a whore what do you do? what do you do? when you love when you love someone so much it hurts deep inside like a knife in your heart even when your happy what do you do? what do you do? when you find that nothing can wake you up you go through life like you're not and when you get up to look around you wonder how you got there what do you do? when you find comfort in the faults and sleep is the alternative to life what do you do? when death replaces sleepI once thgouht that a poem wasn't really a poem if it didn't ryme. But today i was sitting at my computer and on impulse i wrote this poem. This is my very first poem that does not ryme, so in my own biased thinking i findit to be my most beautiful.
