The Struggles Of Life
July 3, 2021
What the hell is life for, to just leave you more broken than before
Is there really anything that goes your way, well never for a full day
Of course, there are good memories, clinging with the enemies
Nothing I do gets me anywhere, and I'm in pure despair
Soon I'll be a wreck, drinking in a trailer home heck, maybe I'll even be in jail
My friends are distant, and I feel so nonexistent to them
But hopefully, I've changed for the better, never been one of those go-getters
Because life is a death trap, ready to snap,
and I'll never be prepared….

This is a piece I wrote in a matter of minutes to get what was off my mind. And I know it's not that great of writing but I could care less what anyone thinks of it. Life can be difficult, I know but if your ever stuck on how to process the emotions on this rollercoaster just know that you're not alone.
