Too Late

MrsS

The tide is turning
The sand is drying
My mind is swirling
My heart is crying

It's all too late

Who am I?
What do I want?
What can I do?
These questions, they haunt

And it's all too late

No opportunity,
No 'foot in the door'
Spent a lifetime restructuring,
Now I've no time for anything more...

It's all too late

My eyes they droop
My head is heavily hung
Feeling age prematurely
Is my song all but sung?

Am I all too late?

There is no help
There's no way out
I need a morsel
As, (internally), I scream and shout

It feels way too late

Have to do my best
But that 'list of things...'
Will never be finished
Only sadness it brings

I have gone and left it all too late.

Is there a Line

Good or bad. Happy or sad. I can't tell have I gone mad.

Hazy

Don't know what to do. I'm stuck in flux. I've had a bit to drink. Maybe I've had too much. My head is feeling dizzy. There's a sickness in my gut. I'm not sure where I am. I'm stuck in a rut.

The Seven Seas.

Its like Learning to crawl again; When you're stuck with your head in the ground. The bottomless well has thousands of yells. And the words build up their mound.

They Tell You...

...that life doesn't end at high school. That you'll have the world to look forward to once you're done.

I Don't Even Know If I Like This

The line between dreams and reality. Blurs everyday. These eyes have seen too much. And I don't know what's real anymore. I don't go a day without. Questioning. Who I am. And what do I stand for.

Eccentric, Melancholic And Alcoholic.

I don't know how to feel anymore. I don't even think you'd recognise me anymore. I've changed because I am not human. I'm not happy I'm not sad. I feel content in the melancholy.

@eddie12309 I suppose not ☺😁 Just feel like I'm in a bloody hamster wheel - been in it for at least 5 years or more, and I can get really fed up and low about it sometimes... 😏 Had a nice morning and a hubby-pep-talk today though, so some positivity has returned 😉😊 Yes, I'll let you know how things are going sometime soon too... 👍
