Nov 2019
This year has been hard
Hard to understand and to endure
I’ve had to put up my guard
And I used to think the world was pure
But this year has shown me the contrary
And I can’t stop feeling hopeless
With all the pain I have to carry
Wanting to be finally noticed
Why am I not good enough?
Or good enough to be happy
What makes life so rough
Having to walk the streets sadly

Having to experience such trauma
the destruction of relationships
waiting to end all the drama
I’m tired of following the scripts
That I didn’t write for myself
The one that made me feel this way
The hurt I just want to repel
The heartbreak I carry everyday
To leave this year behind
But it is impossible
As I am confined
In a world of obstacles
Which trips me over
Every step I take
Waiting for someone to takeover
Before I fall for the last time and break

Tumble down and never get up
Not be able to walk by myself again
People expecting me to keep my head up
Whilst my heart is being drained
I just need to see some light
To show a path to joy
To guide me when I’m alone at night
As my world is being destroyed
A new Year is coming
More hope to be found
for this feeling to be nothing
And leave this reckless battleground
