Guessing Game

I know sometimes it's going to rain,
And without pain there is no gain.
But how much do I really have to live?
Considering everything about me I give.
I do my best to make everyone smile,
And when I'm lonely it's your number I 
dial.
From time to time I feel helpless and 
alone,
Even though I'm 31 and fully grown.
Am I ever going to catch a break,
Or am I always going to be chased by the 
snake?
I hate living my life from day to day,
I never know when my mind will go astray.
I have always put on a good little front,
But for my feelings you will have to hunt.
I'm not an easy one to figure out,
However I'm not one to pout.
Until than I remain a guessing game,
And live my life exactly the same.

Loneliness seems to prevail with you I think. Be strong if so and write on. It gets it off your chest and say to yourself potentially I will bump into ahappy accident tomorrow and everyday. If read wrong by me - apologies Beautifully imparted. Take care Ian F
