It’s tough,
you know,
getting up
for yourself

Breathing;
shoulders
up and down
for yourself

Fighting;
wanting
to be here
for yourself

There was a time
when it was different
You barely recall
and you hardly remember

At what point
did you lose yourself?
Maybe if you go back
you’ll find it again

You’re trying
to pick up pieces
that don’t fit
Not anymore

Deformed
and shapeless
Too tiny and too big
You don’t understand

They crumble
Sand and dust
close the wounds
not quite

You forgot
what you’re doing,
why you’re here,
what you’re fighting for

You lose yourself
by trying
to find yourself;
spinning circles

Then you stop
and find
you’re alone
Nobody’s there

Who wants to be
with someone
who doesn’t want to be
with themself?
I can't do poetry
But it worked as a vent
And I just like to get things out there...I don't know, it's stupid.
Sorry
