Life
How do you go about doing something you hate?
Do you stand there peering through the bars of the gate?
How do you tell others how you feel?
And truly convince them that what you say is real?
When all you know is remorse and regret,
And you still haven't come out of it yet,
How can you ever hope to forget?
There comes a time for everyone,
When all your life seems to have been undone,
When your heart feels like it weighs a ton,
When all your friends have been reduced to none.
But even as impossible as it may seem,
And sometimes you just want to scream,
Any situation, despite its appearance,
Can be gotten through with perseverance.
The truth is that it's all in your mind,
People just don't see it because they're blind,
You never need be sad or depressed,
You can lay all those horrid feelings to rest,
Everyone has a life to fulfill,
But whether you go or simply stand still,
Is all merely a matter of will…
