College student trying to get through life immersed in joy
I feel like people are the wind They pass by and I really don’t mind Though I stand here with this sign My eye off in the distance I don’t even try Someone drops a bill I don’t check to see Is it pride that keeps my gaze? I wish the rain would fall I used to have But I lost They said make a move Roll the dice Its better to have tried Now its better to have died In these moments of sober thought I have these thoughts How can someone who has Parallel my grief? Yet we share Every stone hits the same rock Bottom Is there always a bottom? Or is that just another trap door People are the wind As they pass by I sink into my bones Its so easy to not move To not cry To feel To see To think I hold a sign Because what else would I do? Sit on a bench? Sleep under a tree? People are the wind

People are the wind
I never thought my mentality could be torn to such an extent. Worse than the slaps The shoves the kicks the punches I went in for Joy I had hope never thought I could live a life so exhausted Stress is the word of the day. Every day But its so overdone It goes beyond anxiety. Fear helplessness Every cent I earn goes to the family we were supposed to be creating Now its all going to the family I wish I could be deserting How can I love her when I come home and “You're a piece of **** “Where were you all day?” “You're a piece of **** I'm a piece of **** I'm a ************* piece of **** I'm gone to often, I don't dress nice, always on my phone have to many **** friends don't care enough never clean smell horrible can't perform don't love her enough Tell me a way to show my love Tell me I want to know because maybe it will get her to stop maybe it will get her to be who I told “I do” It was all mental for a while I thought when you broke it was like in half I didn't know there were shatters tears splits explosions My identity was numb by the time she started physically my friends and family believe the rumors *********** has addicted another husband I don't have what it takes be a “real man” No hope, no reason, no soul her life her punching bag her creativity Don't tell me women can't physically abuse they're not dumb You get punched, slapped, kicked so you grab her see you in a year when you get out she called in and there was marks on her arms from your hands now you're the guy who has no pride I haven't had one for a while If I did I would have been locked up two years ago But I also don't have a me so its easier It hurts yes but I'm in more pain when I think about not being able to see my boy
