Sonnet XI

Ev'rything around me is crumbling

All the things I love, all the friends I've made

Running in the dark and I'm stumbling

It just all blew up like a hand grenade

Wishing things would stay the same for longer

But it's far too late for that to happen

Wishing I could be a little stronger

And deal with all the problems like us men

But on the inside, it's all killing me

I try to keep it together outside

But I think I've finally struck a leak

Can't I please just get off of this damn ride?

   All is happening way too fast these days

   Debating on if I've been raised or razed.
