I would like to be the one that tells you

Everything is ok

But i hate to be the one to break it to you

But it's not

This world we live in

Is a living hell to some

And a dream land for others

And no it isn't fair

But guess what

Life doesn't care whats fair and what's not

Life will give someone a perfect life

Money, fame, love

And others get nothing

And some of us

More than we like to admit

Get something

That they feel like no one understands

A mental disorder,

A death to someone close,

pain..

Some worse that others

Some varying drastically but has the same name

And some don't even have names

And you just have to deal with that

Just like some people have to deal with my poetry

Because some people will say this isn't poetry

But do i give a fuck

No

I've been through hell

Not with a smile on my face

But with tears down my cheek

Trying to live for just one more week

But fighting is tiring

And my mind has this broken wiring

That told me to just end my suffering

That it wasn't worth me fighting

And i tried to lose my battle

But life rose me up on a saddle

And it said no

You don't get to run from me that easily

And i sat in that hospital bed and just thought

Why

Why didn't it work

Why was i still there

Why did i have to wake up

From my sweet sleep

That separate my body 

From this day to day torcher

To my calm surreal mind

But i now years later realize

Its because that no matter what my mind tells me

That i can change it 

To how i want it

That my calm surreal mind can become a part of reality
