grabbing the shovel of regret
you excavate the soft soil of the calm earth
that was once so fertile and perfect
piercing it's peace and purity
only left with the fragile remnants of dirt
that have instantly crumbled to pieces
you dig yourself deeper into the hole
the hands of loved ones reach out to you,
but why do you only reject?
you want to look up
but you're too afraid
to let your tears, already at the brim of your eyes to fall
you tell yourself to only look down
and dig deeper into the abyss of eternal darkness
by then, you've already dug too deep
you call for help
but everyone already gave up and left
it saddens me,
the idea of your complicated mentality
that the people around you cause only nothing but trouble
that the burdens laid upon you are not from yourself,
but only from others
love, open your eyes
why must you think this way?
you've denied everything
that could've lead you to the path of life
yet you carelessly ignored the help
and lead yourself to the pit of death
no one else is here to blame
when will you realize until it's too late?
when really the only person who held you back
was yourself.
m.p.
i've seen situations where someone wants to just be happy, yet they can't move on and only make things more difficult for themselves. they blame the environment around them, for the burdens they carry. when really, they are the producer and creator of those problems ever since the beginning. they reject the help offered to them, until it's too late for them to be saved. through this, i hope those will realize.
