Like I want it all
and yet all I’m grasping at is air.
There seem to be no answers to my questions.
And no matter what I do I feel like I’m running out of solutions.
I’m continually running out of stuff and the truth is there is no help being thrown my way.
I feel used and left to swim or sink and right now I’m sinking.
I seem fine and tired on the outside but I’m truly drained on the inside and faking the little bit of joy to keep me going.
It’s like I’m the cat foolishly following you around because you have a fake mouse a stick.
Will, I ever give up or will I continue to let you lead me the wrong way.
