A Letter To Life
DEAR LIFE,
I HAVE MANY THOUGHTS ABOUT YOU
WHETHER OR NOT I'LL LIVE YOU CORRECTLY
OR LIVE YOU AT ALL
MY MIND CAN'T REST OR WONDER
IT ONLY HAS MY EMOTIONS TO PONDER
LOVE.HATE.ENVY AND ANGER
NOT SIMPLY PUT, BUT CALMLY CONSIDERED
AS SOMETHING I COULDN’T OUTRUN
DON'T EXPECT ME TO KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH YOU
I'M CONFUSED
DISORIENTED
NOT THOUGHT THROUGH
I FOLLOW THROUGH
MASKED WITH A DOUBLE EDGED SWORD
INSTEAD OF TEARS AND DISMAY
I COULD USE A HAND AT THIS THING YOU FORCED ME INTO
IT'S NOT MY FAULT IT'S A THING I COULDN'T RELAY
BUT SAVE MY SOUL FROM FALLING
INTO A DARK WELL
WITH HANDS TRYING TO PULL ME TO HELL
TALK TO ME AND DON'T CONSTANTLY PUSH ME.
MY MIND HURTS MORE THAN MY BODY
EVEN THOUGH IT FEELS GROGGY
SURELY YOU CAN SAVE ME
EVEN IF IT ENDS WITH MY SOUL ACHING
