This is no way to be Poem, by Aa Harvey, at My poetic side

This is no way to be

Social dis-function; allow me to live.

I just wanna be a normal boy,

Not a wooden misery.

Failure to mention;

I hide away from everything.

Paranoia strikes, leaving me in Limbo, limply.

Walking quickly, talking quietly,

Hoping something will one day change;

But everything remains the same, useless brain,

Inside a head full of fearful steps.

Nothing but regrets to get me out of bed.

I look the same as you.

I act the same as you do;

But inside I am confused.

Born only to lose,

Singing my own blues.

This is no way to be;

But this is the real me.

So sad, so real. The road oflife is very steep. The waters, treacherous
and very deep and often times they will make you weep. then life will push you to the brink, to show you. You're a lot tougher than you think.
Remember, when you feel you can no longer stand. You can always reach out and tag Heavenly Hands.
