A Poetic Tragedy

A poetic tragedy

that may end

walking the tightrope

my devious friend

reaching towards the sky

i find limits

wanting to go high

but find too many obstacles in the way

day after day

it gets tougher

along a road that just gets rougher and rougher

I used to be strong, with a heart of gold

but with all the pain

I have become so distant and cold

wishing for a break that would make things happen

but only finding people pushing me around

my dreams get forgotten and crushed to the ground

I look to the sky, hoping to find some answers

only finding more unanswered questions...
