My path in life

So much shit has changed now

no offense but you seem like a whore.

Your getting with all these guys

but I'm not moving

from this spot where I stand.

Because I'm locked in place

are my legs giving out?

It's even a little funny

that you hooked up with my friend

but how do you think it makes me feel

when I am not laughing.

I stop laughing

when the sun goes down

the night brings out the real me

and as I lay in bed in the sark,

I am mesmerized by my own thoughts

and I can't control what I think about.

At least I realize

that my mind is fucking with me.

It tells me there's still hope,

that I shouldn't give up.

But I am beginning to give up

because it seems there is no hope left.

Are you sure about this?

This is your last chance

or else I will never again

want to be with you.

So that's a no I guess

well that's too bad

I saw in our future

a straight path to walk on

but now I can see,

as you stray from the path,

dense fog is surrounding me.

I still walk this path now

because I see no other path,

and am lost in my own consciousness.

You have found a new path,

a better path to walk on.

I wish you would share that path

because I'm lost without you

but to you, it seems,

if I join your path

it will be a worse path for you

but ehy can't you see

that this is not true?

It would be much better

than any path created

I can already see it in my mind.

It's a perfect path,

no bumps, no turns.

It's just straight and clear.

But this path will not be made

because you don't believe in me

but why can you not

when you believed in me before?

That just seems odd to me.

Now my path is blocked,

the construction signs say your name

and delays could last hours, days, months,

could even take years or worse

forever.

What I really want to do

is turn away from these blockades

and walk backwards to the path

where I was happy.

I try searching for it

but it cannot be found.

That memory is dead.
