Sometimes I Feel Like...

i don't feel like me anymore
my fight is fading
and my heart is heavy
even tho i feel empty
it seems every day is the same
and i just go thru the motions
struggling to stay sane
trying to stay focused
i want to be hopeful
but i feel so hopeless
so many ambitions
but no means to obtain
every time i see light
a door slams in my face
like everything i want
is on display behind glass
"you can look but you can't touch."
and i'm tired of being trapped
sick of being stuck
frustration taking over my sanity
because my dreams move faster than reality
i want to reach for so many things
but so many things keep grabbin me
so i'll just run in place
until i can break free
one of these days
i will be the me i want to be

catch your breath but never stop running, the finish line may be closer than you think.

and that is all.

thank you ladies!! we can all get down sometimes but we should never let our emotions get the best of us. so we just gotta take a breather sometimes (catch our breath) and get back on the grind (keep running)
