Hopeless

There's no greater enemy than that hopeless feeling,

Asking God why this is happening, as you pray kneeling

Maybe turning to alcohol to drink the pain away,

Wondering about that point in life where you went astray

Feeling no one understands so you turn to certain drugs,

An alcoholic father who'd rather abuse than give hugs

Molested as a child turned her trauma into a future of prostitution,

A secret she held as her uncle threaten so she never got restitution.

Hopeless turns into depression and a feeling of no longer being on Earth,

Suicide on the mind unaware that death will cause a quick rebirth

Medicated with pills that alter your mind, yet declared healthy,

Pain built up inside, even when materially, your wealthy.

Looking at people thinking no one wants to help you out,

A mind not at capacity when fear turns thoughts into doubt.

Swallowing too many pills with the hope never to awake,

Broken down emotionally, a smile you can no longer fake.

No one is perfect we have to accept we make mistakes,

Don't get caught in the illusion of a fear based world full of snakes.
