Has anyone ever felt as sad as I am right now?
Said Jeremiah.
That's the heart breaking,
earth shattering,
bone crushing,
part of a chorus that is sung on forever by humanity.

I am on my knees,
thanking a god I might never get to see.
I am on my knees thanking him for a life,
of which no one wants to see!

We think we are alone,
we think we are unique,
and because of this,
we think that no one else understands what it's like.

Walk a mile in my shoes,
they say.
But they never end up saying that they already have.

This is because they got new shoes.
This is not to mean they don't remember,
sprinting a 5K called life,
barefoot.
This not to mean they don't have regrets,
or they didn't ever find love,
or they didn't ever UNDERSTAND!

...this is merely a saying,
that says they got new shoes.

They took their lives into their own hands and turned around their perspective.

You can too.
Lamentations of Jeremiah is a beautiful piece. Please go listen to it.
