Crowded thoughts

crowded thoughts and broken minds
we think, we hope, we pray
want so much
Yet, do so little
Aim for the stars
but stay on the ground
beating hearts and battered bodies
we wish, we try, we want
give nothing
Yet expect everything
so much hope
much more despair
so much good
much more bad
who decides?
To live or to die
Is it? to try everyday
or try for one chance
and let go
 waiting.. 
expecting.. 
ending.
