Cant Live With It Or Without It

I'VE BEEN FORCED TO FACE ALOT OF TRUTHS THIS LAST YEAR
TRYING TO FIND OUT WHAT REALLY MATTERS
WHAT GOOD IS A WORLD WITHOUT LIFE IN IT

FEELING COMPLETLY INEFFECTIVE
TRYING TO FILL THE VOID IN MY HEART
ABSORBING A DREADFUL LONLINESS THATS GRIPPING ME

WASTING PRECIOUS TIME
LAST OF MY COMPUSURE DISAPPEARING
DESPERATION MAKING ME LIGHT-HEADED

SO MANY MONTHS OF EMOTIONIAL TORMENT
FIGHTING TO HOLD ON TO A BIT OF HOPE
UNCOMFORTABLE WITH HEARING MY OWN VOICE

FRUSTRATED AND  CONFUSED ALL THE TIME
LONGING FOR THAT IMMEDIATE COMFORT
A FEELING SIMILAR TO REASSURANCE

HOW MUCH MORE OF THIS CAN I TAKE
CHOKING BACK EMOTIONS TO AVOID CRYING
FEELING LIKE A RECIPEIENT OF PERPETUAL UNFAIRNESS

THE PERSISTANT PART OF ME TRUSTED IMPLICITLY
ENVISIONING MY REUNION WITH LOVE
CONSTANTLY VENTURING INTO THE UNKNOWN FOR
SOMETHING THAT MIGHT NOT BE THERE!!!

                                HMMMMMMM
