Waste not, want not
Love not, hurt not
Live not, die not
Please help me
Save my life
I want to die
I need to live
My feelings are wrought
They are all drenched
Soaked through with sweat and blood
Dripping with tears
The tears of ages ago
My faith has been tested
My faith in love
My faith in life
I've never been so close
Too close for comfort
So close to death
That the icy breath
The cold stare
The frozen steel
Is all in my face
I can't see
I can't speak
Am I dead, or still living ?
I can no longer tell
The differences of life
The differenceit makes
Is nothing compared to the pain
The pain that life causes
Why are we here ?
Why does it matter ?
Why are there so many questions ?
Questions with no answers
At times I pray
Pray that God would take me
So that I would worry no longer
The worry of life would no longer be mine
I serve as no great purpose
My life is wasted
Why was I put here ?
I don't know
Yet I wish I did
So I wouldn't feel so lost
When a loss is suffered
Why can't life make sense ?
Not to be perfect
For nothing is perfect
Just more perfect than it is
But too close, I must say,
That at this point, I am without answers.
