Lost :(

I feel so lost...yet again!

So you're walking down a street

You take a left then a right

A dead end is what you meet

In the dark of the night

 

You look for a way out

For someone to help you

You begin to yell and shout

But there's nothing you can do

 

You begin to walk back

But you've hit another dead end

No more can you back track

You're left alone without a friend

 

You're finally getting somewhere

Everything is going fine

You're laughing without a care

Its all so divine

 

Then you've hit another wall

It came out of nowhere

When did it all begin to fall?

Nothing's left but despair

 

Maybe there is no way out

Maybe there is no happy ending

Its the same with every route

No use pretending

 

This is life

Nothing but twists and turns

Full of sorrow and strife

Now way to return

 

It's true and cruel

Learn to deal

You'll be left playing the fool

Happy Endings are not real!

Author's Note

You'll soon come to see this as true!

well. that's depressing lol

but sadly it appears to be very true, based on what my experience of life has been thus far. but every now and then, the road opens for us, and we're allowed passage into the next phase. but yes the walls always seem to find their way back to being built

"Maybe there is no way out

Maybe there is no happy ending

Its the same with every route

No use pretending"

that was my favorite verse.

big hugs

So true, life goes foward ata steady pace, until you want to go back-then it jumps ahead.

This is a wonderful, touching and sorrowful poem, wonderful job.

So sad, but in the end it is all about perception.
