LIFE

Life can be a confusing journey

Sometimes we can feel lost in the midst of it all

I know this feeling all too well

It's hard to admit, but I've been wandering aimlessly for so long

I don't even recognize myself anymore

I'm scared that I'll become toxic to the people I love because I'm always so stressed and depressed

I often wonder where God is and why I'm here

I escape my reality through books and fall for people I can never have

I'm not sure where my life is headed

But I hope I'm strong enough to handle it

Sometimes I feel like a ghost, invisible to the world

Silently screaming for help

But I pick up my pen and write out my frustrations, fears, and desires.

I give myself my own consolations

Devastation, it’s word I've been using to describe the hole I'm trapped in

But as I look closer

I realize that some of the people I put on a pedestal were only there for their own convenience

It's always been so one-sided

I'm left feeling empty at the end of the day

I don't know why life is so difficult

But I hope for the strength to pick myself up and move forward with my head held high.
