You have taken it all from me
The beautiful stories crafted in my head

I keep waiting for it to get better & it doesn't
And I do not have the strength to make it better
(Please, why me? What do you want from me? My soul is heavy with the destiny you have placed upon me and my heart is unfulfilled)
