I don't want to cry.
But sometimes I do.
I'm not a prayerful person.
But sometimes I pray.
Not that any of my prayers deserves to be answered.
I've been driven to beg.
Bartering.
Ultimatums.
I want
I need
Give me
Do you ever feel so hopeless
that it paralyzes you?
All you can do is watch
as fate demolishes your plans for the future.
******* all over your dreams.
Tearing up your innocence,
not even bothering to recycle the debris.
Put childish things aside.
Grow up and get a real job.
Get married and start a family.
You owe it to yourself.
To everyone.
Another birthday passes.
Another debt to pay.
Another year spent.
