Mind Trip

I'm up, I'm down,sometimes I wonder if my mind is sound,
   I'm sad, I'm angry, never really felt that anyone could love me,
I look, I don't see, I close my eyes and wonder should I breathe,
   I fear, I'm strong, what ib my life could I have done for it to be so wrong,
My family, we hurt, where is daddy to put in some of the work,
   I'm thirsty standing, so why am I dripping wet?
My emotions are embedded within so I'll never forget,
   Its dark, with tears of blood , I'm screaming, shouting out for a little love
Its silent, I pray,  I'm awaken to a new begining in my mind it plays repeating the 
ending,
   I live, I touch,the battle is so hard but I want give up
Its a mind over matter and it matters to me my family mean this much
