Being Me: The Memoirs of a Caribbean Child

Emotional

What has life come to?

How do I live day to day?

Sitting in my room

Wondering when they will come

To help me through my pain

I guess they are being ignorant

But I'm emotional

My love will disappear

Some people just ain't right

I only have One Life to Live

I'm emotional

Keeping back all my tears

But it doesn't work

They see my pain and torture

I can't take it anymore

Love is going through the door

I'm emotional

Friendships turned relationshps

Holding on to dear life

Trying to survive

Clearing my thoughts

Making new plans

Love never returned

It just festered like a sore

I'm emotional

She is a friend, a good friend

Nice and sweet in every way

But I can't ask her

I'm emotional

I won't ask her to be the one

I can't and I won't

Because our friendship is strong

Is this rock bottom?

Have I shut myself out from the world?

Or did I suffer of loneliness for years?

I regret the choices I made

The painful memories won't fade

And my feelings turn sour

Destructive and Terrifying

I see the light

It shines

And I missed the plane

Alone again

I'm emotional

I can't let go

Trying to fight tears

Trying to achieve dreams and wishes of love, peace, happiness and joy
