Life Or Something Like

Contributed by kidpoet_213 on Thursday, 27th May 2004 @ 02:12:43 PM in AEST
Topic: toughstuff



Life's just got me down...
It's turned my once Heavenly smile upside down
It's like I'm living life or something like it now
I'm just going through the motions of the day
Wondering if there's another way
Or if nothing is truly right anymore...
Or if that truly is my life... walking out the door?
I don't know where to turn...
I don't know where to run or to hide...
I feel as though my life is being adjourned...
To some dark... dreary... lonely place... in time
Where I don't want to be...
But I have no choice... because I'm not free
I must follow it through...
To the end... of my days...
And just live life or something like it... this way

My journey of life has ended...
But I'm still here...
Still waiting to disappear
Just living life or something like it...
Not really existing at all...
Just living in a shell of life...
Waiting for the ax to fall
For this life to come to a grinding halt
Just living life or something like it
That's all...

All I have left are these tears...
Heaven knows... I've cried an ocean through the years
When my family and friends just left me behind in the dust of this life
All I've had left to live... is life or something like it
I've had nothing to lose or gain by it
Just living life or something like it

The heart of this matter is...
I DON"T CARE ANYMORE...
I'm tired of living life on these broken promises and empty dreams
These days that's all my life seems to be
One promise after another... broken...
Because of all the empty words spoken...
My dreams... empty...
Always flatten by unkind words...
Deflated... because they were never nutured or heard

So yeah... I'm just living life or something like it
Not really existing at all...
Just sitting here... waiting alone...
In some dark... dreary place...
Waiting for the ax to fall...
Just living life or something like it
That's all...

Your journey has never ended as long as you remain here to write. And you express yourself with pain, yet poetic in nature. So many of us feel this same way, and it feels good just to get it out, and know, someone is always here. Not empty in caring. See? I am here? :-) Take care!

I love you, and I care.......sending you oddles of love and hugs
