Why I Write

I write to vent my deepest feelings Even if the feelings are deeply sad Hope to help someone who shares these feelings Because alone I struggle and hurt so bad I haven’t written much for a time But tonight I’ve wrote a lot I feel I’ve past my prime So I put down words, lets give it a shot I struggle late at night By myself all alone I hardly feel right Stumbling in my home I have a problem with my mind It causes me to drink it away Happiness I try to find So desperate in my bed I lay I really do want to believe That I can get better But my mind says “they’ll leave” And All I’m good for is to upset her I feel depressed and full of fear That I’ll walk this road forever Without you to hold me near On this hopeless endeavor I love many very deeply Its hard to know they feel the same I know my doubts sneak creepily I hope they at least remember my name To all those who struggle too Know you aren’t the only one Because struggle I certainly do So please put down the gun. I love you all so much Please hold on strong I hope your hearts I touch Know your doubts are wrong
