Lately I've been feeling so worn down. <br />Watching the world go by, and waiting for my life to begin. <br />I'm afraid of feeling and I'm afraid I'm waisting the time I've got. <br />Lately everything hurts, even friends kind words can somehow sting <br />Like salt on a fresh paper cut. <br />Even I hit myself with words, terrible words. <br />Save me save me, I am lost. What is wrong and what is right? <br />I've overthought and I've been stupid and wished I could go back. <br />But does anyone else feel the way I do right now, <br />Screaming out into the black endless night?<br /><br />Rita Shay<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/am-i-alive-4/
