Depressing Thoughts

I shall be telling this with a sigh.
I haven't slept in a week.
Life for me ain't been no crystal stair.
What happens to a heart deferred?
Looks like nothing's gonna change.
Though instinct and ambition shoves,
I'll tell you what I know.
Tomorrow,
They'll see how beautiful I am.
Two wrongs don't make a right.
In a case this tough,
What's the use?
Rage works if reason won't.
I can't do what ten people tell me to do,
So I guess I'll remain the same.
Just sittin' here restin' my bones.
And this loneliness won't leave me alone.

A Soul.

Fragile as a new-born, Translucent as a past, Touch me and I'll shatter, I wasn't meant to last. Hold me, I'll be broken, Leave me, I will fade, Love me, live me, I will die, Ignore me where I'm laid.

Trapped

This world is a trap, Just all tap, tap, tap, Around and around, Never leaving the ground, Longing, wishing, hoping, All drinking and doping, Will that find more.

Must

Must we haste And waste the day. Must we worry About what others think. Must we overthink Every little detail. Must we pretend And lie till the end. Must we fight And blur our sight.

On The Brink

Standing on the brink, It may be hard to think. When things go out of sync, Gone before you blink. Standing on the brink, You feel you start to sink. The devil starts to wink, Is this it. Gone.

Life’s sticky misery

Inhabitable in the wind. bring me to my knees. I want to be. like a dark disappearing sea. lost but dazes, it melts away. I see only a hazy frost blur. for I am not her. in this emptiness I say.

Foundations

My structures, my foundations, My innermost supports, Are breaking, crashing, tumbling down, In every out of sorts.

Rise above the ocean if despair your floating in, make ship out of all the glimmers of hope and happiness and sail away β›΅

@Mickael That's lovely advice. Thank you very much!
