How Should I Feel

How should I feel when the world crashes at my feet? 
What am I supposed to think when i see my heart lost? 
How do I hold on to my pride when its been a defeat? 
What makes a man pick up and keep going even if he cannot take the cost? 
And my whole world is spinning down beneath me. 
I can still hear my soul calling because me needs me. 
And I ask myself, even toment and harrass myself. 
Only to bring me up and back down to the floor. 
I don't understand this thinking. 
Why would she rather be a whore? 
But it seems all my life is linking. 
And now my heart is burning.....right down to the core. 
But I fight my tears.....a constant blinking. 
Because I was sure I couldn't take it before
