A million tears I cry, <br />why can't at least one take away the pain? <br />A million fears I hide, <br />why can't, at least one, my heart face? <br />A million questions asked, <br />why can't at least one I get an anwser to? <br />A million years have past, <br />why can't time change the things I do? <br />A million dreams I've dreamt, <br />why can't one give me hope? <br />A million mistakes un-meant, <br />why can't one teach me to cope? <br /> <br />Why can't I just be free? <br />Why am I held back with these chains of doubt? <br />Why can I not just be? <br />Why can't I just get out? <br /> <br />I'm held back! <br />I want to be released! <br />My body goes slack, <br />I've given up...finally.. <br /> <br />I never thought myself a quiter, <br />I always stuck it through. <br />But sometimes, when your in a battle, <br />...you just have to lose. <br /> <br /> <br />P/N: There have been A LOT (well, like maybe 3, but whatever) <br />and I need everyone who reads this to know <br />it IS NOT BASED ON PERSONAL EXPERIENCE! <br />I am a very happy and healthy child. <br />I don't have thoughts like this...well ever. <br />I wrote it because I could sympathize, NOT empathize, <br />what OTHER people are going through. <br />Hope you enjoy.<br /><br />kimber harrison<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/giving-up-the-battle/
