A Way To Live
Alone, sad and mad all at the same time.
I have so much pain that it should be a crime.
This crappy way of life is all I’ve known.
Actions I have to own.
My kids are nearly grown.
Filled with fear, no chance of escape.
I could really use a super man cape.
I’ve helped so many, and hurt much more.
Been on a mission to find the exit door.
I don’t even know what I’m looking for.
Choices I’ve made haven’t been great.
Love has taught me how to hate.
I always have too much on my plate.
Now I just need to find my fate.
I have laughed and loved, and I have pushed and shoved.
I knew when to be tough.
I can get through times that are rough.
I just need to learn when enough is enough.
I have to live like there’s no tomorrow.
I can’t keep drowning myself in sorrow.
