Running a Mental Marathon

All I am breaks and gets called art

They praise my empty shell

A Kaleidoscope from a broken heart

A wasted life that once was well


My life is a marathon

The runners come and go

Breathe in breathe out I know you'll win

You have to show them all


I fall towards the gravel

Collapse, and just stare

I've been running for miles

But I've gotten nowhere


My lungs are empty

I can't breathe

I'm calling out

Come help me please


I'm fading

Getting close to death

Then suddenly

I'm out of breath
