nothing but confusion

thoughts race again as the daytime flies by only for the night to crawl past waiting for morning to begin i think i might just drown in that ocean of sorrow falling down deeper and deeper wait till tomorrow to find the answers until it becomes clearer im scared now where does it come from this emptiness becoming emotionless once again this night just never ends i cant get the thoughts out of my head and just rest i long for answers happiness and joy to no longer to mourn and scorn myself i lay restless in bed searching to find no end to this ongoing cycle of ups and downs where to go or what to do no cant turnaround now too late to go back you can never do that you can only go forward but why must it be forward and back not up or down or left and right who defines these things? i can tell you its not me im just ranting now but how shall i go on and push forth? if im not sure what im pushing for or longing to be im just me used confused a good kid they say only if they knew the thoughts that fill my head while i lay in this bed night after night as i lose this never ending fight with my own life how can i think to be with you? or anyone? if i cant be me how can i be? i dont even know me i question who i am i often wonder who i am in this world im lost confused broken and scarred as i say but this life goes on and so will yours without control its up to destiny no other remedy
