While I sit & wonder
What could possibly happen next

There comes a point where
You have to accept failure
& quit calling it a test

Can I make it

This isn’t how life is supposed to be
But then again

You aren’t supposed to make
The mistakes that I’ve made

“It’s okay, just power through”
Is often said by people
That wouldn’t understand pain

Like they don’t realize
That hard times
Have advanced from my heart
& taken over my brain
