Where should I even begin, my mind is ******* racing with observations, perceptions and lessons A cluster of thoughts needing to be released It's a hard thing to do with the recent pace of sudden changes In combination with an overactive mind I read a poem that said a wet face is better than a dry soul And Lord knows the moment is coming when I will explode I want the time to be sad and the strength to be weak I want the confidence to speak or the discipline to write I can’t deny the fact I feel sick and depressed I can’t figure out where I learned to feel so numb on the outside I want so bad to believe in hope and I am tired of feeling lonely With the unfortunate events of death surrounding my reality There is indeed a part of me that still believes A sweet optimism underneath I just hope I don’t lose you as a part of me drowns Because disappointment no longer phases me But to not believe in anything, might ruin me
