What am I doing? Why am I here?
Is there no reason I cried every last tear?
I want to be happy I want to know
If this, my life, is as far as it will go
It is destructive not knowing your purpose
Just going through life thinking you’re worthless

I have many friends many I do not know
But to them I just can’t go
For if they knew what I do
Then surley my life would be through
From the outside it doesn’t seem so bad
But it's unbearable the life I’ve had
So much of life I haven’t had that it seem real
All I want is to again have love to feel

I’m sure that this will all pass on
And this pity I have will then be gone
My sorrows will leave and be no more
And this pain goes and makes others feel poor
But tell then in these thoughts I will cry
Tell another session with my psychiatrist I can buy.

“Yes, can I speak to Dr. Capelin?”
Speaking he says
“When is your earliest opening…”?

Dwelling in self pity

What am I doing? Why am I here?
Is there no reason I cried every last tear?
I want to be happy I want to know
If this, my life, is as far as it will go
It is destructive not knowing your purpose
Just going through life thinking you’re worthless

I have many friends many I do not know
But to them I just can’t go
For if they knew what I do
Then surley my life would be through
From the outside it doesn’t seem so bad
But it's unbearable the life I’ve had
So much of life I haven’t had that it seem real
All I want is to again have love to feel

I’m sure that this will all pass on
And this pity I have will then be gone
My sorrows will leave and be no more
And this pain goes and makes others feel poor
But tell then in these thoughts I will cry
Tell another session with my psychiatrist I can buy.

“Yes, can I speak to Dr. Capelin?”
Speaking he says
“When is your earliest opening…”?

I think we all know self doubt. We all wonder what are lives are about. Asking the questions is what the quest of life is for. Finding the answers... Well, I think only a few attain this level. All we can do is enjoy the quest.

Good Write.

you opened up your deepest wounds and
exposed them for all to see that alone is
worthy of my respect. Not only was this
honest, but it was equisitely written I loved the
flow of it.
"I’m sure that this will all pass on
And this pity I have will then be gone
My sorrows will leave and be no more"
I loved those three lines because they show
that you still have hope which is important.

a very expressionistic piece of writing - i felt that youu really conveyed your message here with lines like 'But tell then in these thoughts I will cry
Tell another session with my psychiatrist I can buy.' - really expressive stuff. excellent.

"All I want is to again have love to feel"
True. The cry of most human hearts. I guess that some just cry louder then others..
Take care, my friend.
