Life I Made
alive at last here i am
down but now up again
waiting for the best part
hoping for a fresh start
happiness so far away
pushing through this wall of pain
my life is mine choices made
nothing but myself left to hate
slip and stumble falling down
i want to change but dont know how
waterfalls of emotion blind me
a ship at sea oh so lost
a fire underneath bitter frost
burning strong but still cold
18 years but already old
holding on but how much longer?
love or hate? which one stronger?
down so often seems like home
con's of life stacking against pro's
more positive than negative
numbers changning im hating it
i want happiness im sick of sorrow
sick of waiting for better tomorrow
sick of the smiles i force upon myself
sick of being to scared to let in help
chances thinnning
pain winning
is this the end?
or a new beginning?
