If you think with your heart and not with your head
This world will leave you broken & left for dead.
To believe that your past is now history,
You should prepare for a lifetime of misery.
If you are a doormat for the world to use,
You have sentenced yourself to a life of abuse.
To grant the world happiness & sunshine all day,
This will leave your days dingy & gray.
Too hard for most, this is only for the elite,
But sometimes you fall & need help back on your feet.
To be chosen to see the world thru a different light,
Only later, you learn it was not worth the fight.
Again & again, you sacrifice your happiness for all,
And no one is there to pick you up when you fall.
A heart is broken again; you were given false hope,
They saw you drowning & never threw you a rope.
This time was your last; you’re too weak to attack,
That is when your eyes go hollow and your heart turns black.
Too scared to care again, your heart is completely numb,
The dead still walking is what you have become.
Now you have fallen & chose not to arise,
No longer wanting a part of the evil that this world applies.
