What Do You Do

ALWAYS WONDERING WHAT TO DO WHEN THERES NO ONE TO TURN TO 

BUT PEOPLE FROM THE OUTSIDE WORLD 

CANT TALK TO FAMILY 

DAD AND MOM NEVER AROUND   

EVEN YOUR SIBLINGS FEEL AGAINST YOU  

FIDDLING IN YOUR MIND WHO TO TRUST 

GIVING UP SOUNDS SO GOOD BUT 

HOLDING ON TO WHAT YOU HAVE WONDERING

IS THERE A WAY TO BE HAPPY AGAIN 

JUST IN THE NICK OF TIME 

KNOCKING IS WHAT YOU HEAR 

LISTENING THROUGH THE DOOR 

MUST BE YOUR MIND PLAYING TRICKS

NOT KNOWING FOR SURE MAKES YOU WONDER DOES ANYONE SEE THE PAIN I FEEL 

OR AM I THE LAST THOUGHT TO COME TO MIND  

PUTTING EVERYTHING BEFORE YOU

QUITE THE TEARS HAVE BECOME 

REALLY WONDERING WHAT TO DO 

SITTING AROUND THINKING BOUT THE WHAT IFS 

TRYING TO FORGET THE NIGHTMARES OF THE PAST 

UNDERESTIMATING YOUR CAPABILITIES 

VIVIDLY THE PAIN STAYS IN YOUR MIND 

WONDERING WHAT TO DO WHEN THE WORLD SEEMS AGAINST ?

It's a great advantage to be able to put your troubles in your poem. I have some nightmares in my past so I can relate.
