To Change to Sublime

Now is the time

To turn to the blind

To find what I cannot see

Continually searching

And constantly hurting

Please show how how it should be



You messed up my life

Stabbed me with a knife

Oh how this wound hurts at times

I healed myself

Did it for no one else

But now I am living behind the blinds



Please tell me now

If this gets better somehow

Or was life a lost cause from the start?

I need a new trend

Will you be my new friend

To help me mend this broken heart



It is now time to move on

I give up and she's gone

I guess that was deemed pointless in the end

Now I am so scared

Of a time when I cared

But I'll stay strong and not break, but instead bend



Sitting at home all alone

Waiting for a fake call on a telephone

I guess I still wonder sometimes

Talking by typing

Reading all the griping

I need to change my life to sublime



With this growing trend,

I must say this is the end

I'll let you all win at a game I wasn't meant to win

Author's Notes/Comments: 

A lot confused as to what I should do with my life right now...this poem is a reflection of that..and lost friends...and all of life's daily struggles.
