To Stay Away or Face the Day

a lack of sleep can generate depression. But this is not depression, at least some including I could say. I get knocked down each day, but stretch my legs and walk again. I just don't know on which this pattern will end.

I need to get out
to leave this place
the ties were too strong
and caused all this hate
and I won't be sorry
to be rid of myself
cause I just can't take it
I need someone else

The fears that I'm having
consume me
and there's no one
to help here
no one near enough
to cry with me
though I wish it was you
I really do
I think I need.

But what do you care
oh well...
moving on....

I'm stumbling and so scared

truly frightened
what is to come
what will I leave
I'm too sick to bereave
anything more
the ties were too weak
and broke finally
your commitment is bull
lies aren't what I need
just someone to believe.


too much
pain
too much
sadness
too many
cries
too much hope
I just can't cope
with knowledge
of eternity
when i'm torn
emotionally
again and again
time after time
what do I do
if I only need You?
too little
time
too little
trust
your friendship
would be enough
if you'd any to give
any will to help me live

have I any salvation
I feel like
the nation
struggling
about to cave
in every way
but going to live
through each day










so i'm off to cry
to wipe my eyes
asking God for help
for right
and managing
for at least
one more night.

Lots of emotion in this well crafted piece of poety, a splendid write, thanks for sharing.

Ending is lovely, good piece. My only suggestion, give it a title. Unless you plan on getting insanely famous, "Untitled" means nothing. There are far too many "untitled"s already.. People tend to ignore them when they're titled this way. Merely a suggestion, take it lightly or do not take it at all. Thank you for sharing.
