I sit in my room and try to imagine my future I cant Not for lack of imagination or lack of trying But for the lack of purpose I see no reason to walk on the path of others And i see no reason to start my own My family looks to me for the future I smile and tell them it is bright They do not see that i myself am in the dark Pain Sadness Loneliness But a few words to describe me
