This Is Mine

This is mine I’m just spinning my wheels, going nowhere fast; I could try to care, but empathy I lack. This place has ruined the person I used to be; There lie the remains of me. I have no strength left to fight back; I look out at the world and everything is painted black. The darkness surrounds my thoughts and leaves me feeling weak; People are so depressing to a misery like me. In sorrow I remember those days of light; Every hope I ever had has disappeared out of sight. No longer can I remember what I wished for, That is if I was ever deemed worthy of a wish at all. I guess not, because I sink under the truth; When life is so hard, why should I ever try anything new? It will all be the same at the end of the day, So keep your happiness to yourself and I will keep walking away. Do not try to follow me; this destination is mine to seek. You are not even a memory; an empty head sets me free. All the love in the world cannot fix my broken mind, So leave me be and I will stay away from your world of lies. Heaven is a dream and life is a nightmare; People are all the same, so I cannot care. Another day of sadness as I head towards the grave; You and I are not so different, but we will never feel the same pain. (C)2016 Aa Harvey. All Rights Reserved.
