Through out the years and years to come

Through out the years I've caused many tears,

and built many fears.

I've broken a heart and since then I've been unable to restart, the taste still being too tart.

Most of my loved ones pleeds I've failed to comprehend,

always having a wall to self defend.

But what did they expect? their emotions were like the wind.

Always in a different direction,

when all I wanted was their love and affection.

And yet they still wounder why most of my work

is in the darker section under self-protection.

For a while now I've been confused in which direction to go.

For most of Life's questions, the answers I do not know.

I do believe my path is near, but even of that I have a fear.

Self-doubt and not knowing what's going to come about,

Enough frustration and pain to make an end and get out.

My future will come regardless.

I just hope it's pain is far less

and without so much stress or mess.

Maybe then I could progress

and find my pretty woman in a dress.
