Trying to Move Forward

I'm sitting here late at night

In front of the computer screen

Wondering, I'm always wondering

What today could have been

I'm always wondering about this depression

Will it ever subside?

Do you look at me differently?

I can't even look into your eyes



I suppose this is a waste of time

Wondering what could have been

But I still can't help but wonder

Where could I have been?



If I hadn't made these mistakes

If I did not let my feelings lead the way

Could it have been different?

or would everyone still fade away?

Would I be the same person like all those other lonely days?



I feel like I'm always in the dark

Everything fades to black

I wish I could just move forward

without ever having to look back



It's easier said than done

I always try to be like your Son

But this world is too tough

And I just feel like giving up



So as I sit here late at night

contemplating on death

Wondering about this rocky road ahead

I wonder if when I fall asleep and wake up again

Wondering if the next morning my dreams will be shot dead



My mind is always going

Paranoia always seems to seep in

Slowly but surely

my insecurities emerge again



My mental focus is shot

I can't think so clearly

I'm on the edge of complete destruction

Of my whole entire body



Now I keep wondering

Could it have been different?



I try so hard to rewind the past

But I fail each time I attempt to grasp

What has really happened



I can't seem to accept

That God can make it different

And now I am totally lost

I really need his intervention

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Just stuff in the past I wished I could take back really really badly. I know God can make things better, but then there are also consequences to each action taken. I know God forgives, but what you chose could bring destruction to what could have been. I suppose it is a waste of time to think it over and over, but really if I would not  have made those choices, things could have and would have been different! This could be applied anywhere in life, but I think one that hurts lots of people is love and friends, and your emotions just go bizerk!!
