Pounding Pains



Pounding Pains
By: ForeverSwt727

How do I live when my head is pounding
and the more I find out
about how this place is astounding
yet also a jail to make me shout and pout

Losing my mind like no other
Because of the one I call my mother
Yet I hate to hurt her as well as you
But I'm going crazy and dont know what to do

My mind is so lost
to ponder how much does my life cost
or what is the price for love to pay
when I suffer everyday

I need some kind of getaway
but I cant seem to find this way
to live in happy eyes
when I refuse to see people with their lies

Sick of it all
and when will a miracle call
or will I have to wait
for time to give me fate

So baffled with this maze
that life is beginning to be a phase of daze and haze
This crazy condition is pushing me to the edge
and i wish something or someone could life me from this ledge.

My fans in my life all walk and talk
But I wish they would worry less and stop the stalk
I appreciate you but need some time
to revive this rich rhyme

As people say more money, more issues
why am i slacking cash and wasting tissues?
Hard is the playing card
to live happily, but I have built a golden guard

I am pacing faster than the speed of light
And wonder why I still want to flight
Why is the sun leaving?
Is it because looks can be deceiving?

The power to control time could save us
rather than witnessing all this fuss
as we frustrate this balance of life on a sew-saw
and be in denial of our own flaw.

No more energy is left in me
for you to really see
what I have to offer...
