Why do I Exist?
Why do I exist?
A question that’s frequently on my mind
Every single day, I do new things
I try and try
To rid of these feelings
Yet to understand myself, with failure I abide
I wake up everyday
Put on the clothes I layed out
I attend school
Go home, do my homework, without a doubt
I work out, and go to bed
I don’t think anything of it, only empty is in my head
But what is my purpose?
Why am I here?
The answers cannot be found
As my repetitive days aren’t making it clear
Sometimes my days are bad
Sometimes they’re good
But I never understood
The life I’m living.
I don’t want to die
But I wish I was never born
If I passed, many would cry
Though it wouldn’t matter to me, as I’d be gone
Forever.
There’s so many possibilities in my life
So much to strive
Beauty in every aspect
Yet if I died, it’s okay because
None of that would matter anymore.
I’d be mourned, yes, but eventually forgotten
Yet I still sought to find the reason why I’m here
But my life doesn’t matter
No matter how hard I try
I can’t find a purpose
So in the void I’ll cry.
