To Drown In Sorrow

It is now on the brink of dawn
I find myself emotionally withdrawn
Caught again this breath of mine
Within me holding remaining confined.
Breathing being the most naturals of things
Not to me for life it brings
Another set back another beginning
All the mistakes my head still spinning
Broken in half then half once more
My heart is gone like before
Inside my shell barely peeking out
Hidden, full of self doubt
Some would say my wounds I'm licking
But fact is I have no time the clock keeps ticking
I fiddle nervously as my thoughts continue to race
I look out at life trying to find a starting place
But too much pain comes with tomorrow
I withdraw to drown in sorrow
