Time Is Up

Meant for more Settled for less What happened to being blessed So much pain So much sorrow Can only dread whats in store for tomorrow Expectations so high Unable to be upheld Too much energy has been expelled Can no longer do it Can no longer try Can no longer live this horrible lie It is over Time has run out Never understood what the fuss was about

This is deep. I felt this way and sometimes i still do, but at the end of the day we both have to move on

Steve I think you are fantastic I am new to the site and have just sat and read all your poems, you have such a talent putting feelings onto paper I felt the pain and tears flowed as everything you said is written inside my heart and head. I wish you joy and happiness......Allie
