Sinking

Why am i feeling like this?

Why can't i stop myself from thinking?

that i'm falling into a bottomless pit

of darkness and i'm sinking

to the bottom of the ocean where

i'm drowning in my own tears of sorrow

and i can see the light above me

but i have no desire to see tomorrow

like i've given up on living

the way the world gave up on me

they never even gave me a chance

i'm lost somewhere in misery

for once, i would like to be appreciated

just for being there

i'd like someone to ask me how i'm feeling

and listen like they care

i want someone to jump in and rescue me

you know the saying, misery loves company

what i really want to know

can someone ever love me?

can someone miss a doormat?

can you live without your stepping stone?

i know you just want to get to the top

but you might have to do it alone

because i can't stop myself from feeling like this

and i sure can't stop myself from thinking

lately, it's like i'm falling into a bottomless pit

or darkness and i'm sinking

hi there!! this is very moving this one. I love the line about drowing in an ocean of your own tears, like it me! But surely you`re happier than this poem portrays!?! lovely work none the less. thanks for the comment, `She Goes On` is possibly going to be our first ever single! it`s not on our myspace profile because it got moved because of new songs coming in. i think there`s an old live version on www.myspace.com/ourfold2 though. thanks again, keep scribbling! x
