Have You Ever

Have you ever had days where it’s felt like your heart wasn’t working right? Maybe it felt like your chest was feeling really tight? Have you ever had a hard time turning your brain off at night? You’ve even tried wishing on a shooting star “I wish I may, I wish I might”, but you still end up with no appetite? Have you ever felt like every sad song you listen to is about you? Do you ever wonder if they care about you, as much as you care about them? Have you ever had to pretend? Have you ever wanted to make a change in the world? Have you ever laid in bed in the dark, under the blankets just curled? Was there a time where you’ve made a mistake? Have you ever been through a heartache? Have you ever wanted to change who you are? Have you wished you were just alone drunk at a bar? Have you thought about how you’ve even made it through life so far? Do you get the urge to pick up and leave and never come back? Do you feel like some days you’re going to fade into the black? Have you ever lost someone closed to you? Did it make you feel blue? What did you do? Did you scream to the heavens and beg for them to come back? Have you ever wished life could just be back tracked? Do you feel like you’re the problem child? How do you feel when you don’t remember passing out on the bathroom tile? Hopefully, all this will make sense in a little while, but until then, you'll just sit there and smile.
