The Pen is Mightier than the Sword

Is this about cutting? It could be, but it could also be something else. It could be a lot of other things now that I think of it. Maybe you'll figure it out, maybe you won't. Interpret it how you will.

 

Finding Happiness

 

I hate you

You push me

You judge what I do

A small step for me

Isn’t good enough for you

We do what we can

With the resources we have

But you can’t see that

You’re just like them

 

Sometimes we all start from scratch

 

Scratch

Scratch

Scratch

 

One for the life

One for the cost

One for the youth that I’ve lost

 

One for the loneliness

One for the pain

One for the bloodletting

And maybe again

 

One so the tears will not fall to the floor

One so that trust doesn’t hurt anymore

One because god is the only one there

One because nobody cares

 

One because fighting is sapping my strength

One for the struggles that have been in vain

One for the people who have turned me away

One because I’ve done exactly the same

 

One because living was never enough

One because I loved you a little too much

One because death is knocking my door

One because I just don’t care anymore

 

One because I can’t find an escape

One because I never wanted to turn out this way

One because I can’t let go

One because I still have hope

 

I close my eyes

I fall away

I give my life

I have no shame

 

I always do the best I can

I cannot do much more than that

And while I am not happy now

Eventually I will be

Pebbles may be all I’ve got

Eventually I’ll lift a rock

From that rock I’ll lift a boulder

And with the weight of the world on my shoulder

Will you not hold my hand?

I can only do the best I can

Do you really expect more than that?
