W. I. T.

Why do I try?
I do not know what to think,
Too tierd to hate it.

Why do I suffer and accept this torment?
I know that I can’t go back.
Too weak to even look it in the eyes.

Who do I carry it for?
I don't know what to love.
That much I know.

What do I carry it for?
I know that I can’t dwell in the present,
That’s about all I know.

Whyever I do it, I do.
I have to live for the future.
This is no reason to die.

Whatever it is,
I am confused,
There’s not much left to love.

Whoever it is,
I am scared,
Trying to push back against it.
