It's Already Over

What is there to experience when you feel like you've seen it all?

I feel sad

It’s a fleeting feeling though, not so bad

I’m glad with what I have, I really am

But I still feel empty inside

Like a glass half full

Happiness, that time, mental illness, and reality stole

Leaving a hole in my heart

A missing cog preventing the gears in my mind from turning

My soul burning cold and even though I’m only twenty I feel old

Old enough to feel like I’ve had my run and it’s over

There's nothing left to earn that feels worth it

Any profit I made can't be spent on anything worth getting

I made it to the top of the hill

Seems like it’s all downhill from here onwards

There’s no fear, just the feeling of no longer being content

With the life and adventures, I’m been sent

It seems like I’ve already experienced enough and there’s nothing left to give

There’s not much left for me to live

What could possibly be new?

Anything that could get me out of this groove

I’m sick of this world

The same thing

No thrill

Nothing left to do but so much time to kill

I’ve done it all

It feels like it’s already over

Author's Note

This is just how I feel right now. Really need something to look forward to.

I very seldom reply to reviews, but I promise I read EVERY single one. I look forward to my next review, because it helps me learn. Even if it's just one word, I promise, I will be ecstatic to have the chance to hear what you have to say. Whenever you write something about my poems, or the themes of my poems, or criticize me it is not in vain. I will listen, learn and be thankful.

I feel like that a lot too. But just gotta keep your head up buddy. You did right by writing this and expressing how you feel.

There is always something worth living for. Just be strong. I liked this poem because you expressed those feelings truly well.

life is tough my friend and we have highs and lows, some get lower than others - I'm sure you have plenty of highs to come, travel, love, friendship, writing, reading, learning....good writing though, you have a natural talent :) keep sharing :)

The challenges of life can become a load the soul is unable to bear. It reads well and give readers a lot to think about, which is a writer wants his work to accomplish. But there is always something else to write so it isn't over till its over or the fat lady sings :~) Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap!

Yeah, often we feel we have no reason live...That's why we set goals, goals to achieve something, something you've longed for. You've expressed your emotions well here. Nicely written!
