The Void

The place I used to go
To find myself
Is the same place
I keep losing myself
It's not working anymore
Nothing helps or matters
Loving you infinitely
You make or break me
Choosing to be the death of me
Sending me spewing throughout eternity
It feels like I have everything
And I only wish I had something
Trying to hold myself together
Keeping my head from falling apart
Viewing my problems
Like everyone else
Only it's more than all this
How will I ever overcome
Much less keep my head above water
It seems to me nothing ever matters
Still I hide in my place
Making everyone satisfied knowing I'm ok
But I am indeed not
Don't think I ever will be
Why do I keep running from myself
I don't understand
I can't comprehend
When will this end
How can I mend
Myself
