Closer To My Dreams

"Isolated and worthless is what I feel sometimes as I find myself in that Ditch,
Praying up to God that I don't want everything in this world but only for my soul to be full and Rich,
I tread lightly with every step I take but there's no escaping the Depression,
Everybody around me thinks I'm so happy but they don't know what I think of my own Reflection,
As I see a man that has achieved so much but doesn't give himself that deserved Recognition,
That puts his absolute all into whatever he has to do to complete his Mission,
Only 26 years old but I have the traits of being so old Fashioned,
Reserve and so calm as that anger within me is always in the mode of being Rationed,
Wanting to give up on my life is a thought that I shouldn't be so comfortable talking About,
But it can be so easy to think that way when it feels like I'm constantly in a Drought,
All there is around me is the heat and the dryness of the Dirt,
Aware of the dangers that try and plague me so I'm always on Alert,
Even though I have this swirling tornado that constantly brewing within my head, I try to relax and tell myself that it's not as bad as it Seems,
Tears in my eyes and begging God please give me that thick layer of protection over me and jolt me in the right direction and get me one step closer to my Dreams ..."
