PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I must go

Or I will never know

This opportunity I cannot throw

A chance to survive and grow

To pick myself up off the floor and back in the flow

No longer can I sit around and wait

I need to make a move before it’s too late

Before I drown in my tears and my soul begins to suffocate

So tired but unable to sleep

Awake for hours ready to leap

I must go

No more time to take it slow

The longer I wait the more I sink low

Following opportunity now

Once I know I will later figure out how

Once again I rise from rock bottom and take a bow

Trying to keep up with the crowd

But the noise is so loud

As my head begins to pound

A headache from all the sound

As the walls begin to close in

My suicidal thoughts begin

As time goes my sanity begins to bend

I must bring the stress to an end

I must go
