The End

I said it was over
My heart didn't mean it though
but after the years, and the tears, and the lies
I think it's time

my heart is not ready
but my spirit is done
I'm not in the game anymore
I don't want to play games anymore
I just can't take anymore

staring out the window while the rain falls
wishing
hoping
praying

while my soul cries
and inside I slowly die with sorrow filled eyes

I envelope pain
and the combination of well-wishes and death-wishes fill my brain

I'm stuck

but not really

everyone knows that to get out of quicksand, you just have to slow down!!
