Sad Poems

~The last bow~

I've been struggling with myself lately, kicking myself out of line.

And I can't stop myself from feeling this way, I just need someone to tell me I'll be fine.

Without lying, cause they might know that I'm too far downhill.

But it seems like this is only the beginning, like it's only a drill.

Like the future will be much worse than what I'm experiencing now,

which makes me want to end my story, to take my final bow.

Of course I remember all of my reasons to live on,

like family, friends, and all reasons not to be withdrawn,

Because I must experience the pain if I want to experience the beauty, an expense I have to pay

But is it really worth it, to live to see another day?
