My Heart Is Full of Sorrow

I cannot take one more day
One more utter sigh within
The breath takes me away
I am sunk in my sorrow
I fear that tomorrow will never come
I am lost in the drowning of never being able to sleep
I lose my way
I go down the wrong path time and time again
I cannot make it on my own
I worry that my future has no home
I lost the road to travel on
I am weak and weary my bones are brittle
My heart so cold its broken stone
I ache all over 
I am tired all the time
I cannot choose right from wrong
I am distracted all the time
I lose myself in prose of sorrow
I find the love
and it bleeds from my veins
Never lasting 
Another failure 
that passes away never lasting 
why do I even bother.
