I can't cope

I can't do it anymore.

I can't climb this mountain any more

when all I achieve sends me tumbling 

back to the base. I'm left wondering why

I ever started the trek up the hill that gets

steeper with each trial and challenge.

I can't do it anymore.

You never noticed how distracted I was

before and so I'm wondering how I can 

hide it no more. Is it because I'm growing 

older, but don't they say with age comes 

experience. I'm not sure anymore.

I can't do it anymore.

The thunderstorm is far to heavy;

The thunder too deafening and the lightening

rips my soul in half splintering my hopes and

deep in my bones my flaws shine clear as

I know it's time they started to show.

I can't do it anymore.

My roar for help is deafening. How can you

hear me but not help me differently, you try

but you don't realise the heartache doen't 

get any easier;it can only get worse and 

anything you say will fly over my head.

I can't do it anymore.

My ears hear you and my heart crys for aid 

but my head thinks differently. It shows me

the bad instead of good. I know all you say

with your ever lasting kindness will never

solve my ongoing problem.

I can' t do it anymore.

As I hide behind my unrealistic facade

I notice the mistakes and my heart begins 

to race, my stomach begins to churn and I  

have the deep realisation within that I'm the

one who caused the problem to myself.

I can't do it anymore.

I curse myself for the pain I've caused to 

myself and because of this the hurt I've

caused to you and I hate myself for it.

Not in my head anymore but in the

deepest depths of my beating heart.
