"Where do you see yourself in 10 years?"
And isn't that the golden question;
The question I've heard all my life -
The question about life asked in life.
It's an irony I can't explain;
A joke with no laughs made,
It's funny when you know -
You know that you've decayed.
It's a line of staying alive,
But I can't make it this time;
It's all been too much -
It's going by in a rush.
And if I don't brush my hair,
That's my sign of not having a care -
A care about you or me,
Or about the world I haven't seen.
And don't waste your tears crying;
I never wanted you to see me dying.

Thanks for sharing this piece of writing. Do not let it be a goodbye. Unless you are saying goodbye to something toxic (like people or habits.) But not a tragic goodbye. Life is difficult and there are many slumps. Life is like a roller coaster with its ups and downs. "If you want the rainbow you must have the rain," as they say.
I hope you will find something to pick up your spirits. You are worthy, and loved, and life will not be dismal forever.
*hugs*
