Lost

Lost

Broken
Battered
Tattered
Lost
Alone
Confused
That’s me
Sad
Depressed
some people say they mean the same
but they just don’t know
the pain I feel is real
The pain I feel won’t go away
It’s as real as ever
Worse than before
Every night pain comes knocking on my door
Forcing its way in
Not giving a damn that I am trying to shut it out
Not really giving a damn about anything
It kicks, and hits, screams, and yells, bites, and scratches
Tries to drag me down to hell
I reach for heaven but know it’s in vain
I fall
I haven’t broken the family history
Like I said I would

Lost is a hopeless place to be...reaching out to heaven or those who can help is not in vain. Strength comes from passion within that wishes change. Believe you deserve better, fight!
