Poetry: Being overwhelmed

by Screwloose

Created on: April 12, 2009

My feet hitting the floor, living pain free no more

I must pull myself together another day

I fall to my knee's and pray

Oh Lord, how much more can I take

The pain I feel is forever more, being overwhelmed

seems like just another chore to overcome

I sit down in a chair only to cry and hope there is a soul

around who will but my tears dry

As the day comes to an end, frightened and lonely am I

Afraid of what pain tomorrow will bring, crawling back into bed

Holding on only to a dream of what tomorrow will bring

Every day being overwhelmed with this pain

I could but spend my time in rage but choose to step up to the plate

and dream for a day without pain and will no longer spend my time being

overwhelmed
