Hopeless

hopeless

even when am sad
when i am in shambles, tears running down
like a storm in the middle of the ocean
i am washed away, no where to be found

in my thoughts i am lost,
my mind becomes so weak
looking to a future with no hope
a future so bleak

empty, soulless, lifeless body
just wondering this world
knowing that i gave up
my mind stuck in an endless twirl

am confused, lost in my actions
now doing before i think
lacking the stability everyone is born with
i am almost at the brink

of ending this miserable
god forsaken life i call my own
for when i look back
i was always alone

i have created nothing
for nothing is all i can do
i am faithless, hopeless
a blank sheet of paper, through and through

and empty glass that sits at a table
no replenishment in sight
i absorb nothing
no message, no passion, no light

filled with darkness
a room with no doors
look through a painted window
to a future where nothing seems sure

i am without love, without care
sure you can see the agony in this
as my life walks blindly
into a thick and dangerous mist

i am hopeless
was told that since birth
and those are the words i'll carry with me
when i finally leave this earth!
