What to do?
How to get through?
So many questions haunting you...
Frustration increasing everyday.
So much so...you are left saying what you really want to say.
Busted your ass for so many years.
Yet, here you sit once again reliving your fears.
Never seems to leave you, not even for a moment.
It's as if once you see and live it, you own it.
Own it in your heart, in your body, in your soul
Consuming every part of you there is to even know.
Even the parts that no one knows about.
Often times the reason one ends up acting out.
Not necessary on what seems to be the case,
nor does one even leave a trace.
A trace of what it is really all about.
The reason you feel a sudden need to scream and shout.
Be mad at all that come your way and let it free
once and for all for the world to see.
Sick and tired of acting like everything is alright.
You no longer want to fight that fight.
You just want to be true to yourself and to those you hold close.
The ones you hope you can truly trust the most.
The question is, if you let it be known for many to hear.
Will they continue to stay forever near?
Will they still stay by your side as they have many times promised?
or will they only stay at the moments you are your calmest.
When everything seems alright and fine.
When honestly, things have been far from divine.
Frustration on the edge, pushing to be free.
Frustration will you allow for them to finally see.
To let the pain go once and for all.
Hoping they will still be there when you call.
That is what will separate the real from the fake.
It will show you what is really at stake.
So let it go you must.
So you can once in for all find out who you can really trust.
As you continue to go through all life loves to throw your way.
Frustration will show the ones that will stay.
