Die Some More Today

I wander through a land of pain

Not knowing where it leads

Facing things I can't explain

My soul so torn it bleeds

While trying to make excuses

To justify my need

I find no satisfaction

No one to intercede

My prayer becomes an empty mist

A vapor, nothing real

No words were ever written

To describe the way I feel

Even my reflection screams

My glass dreams start to break

I cannot find a purpose here

My life, a mere mistake

Death is still a mystery

He will not look my way

Unless this life is truly death

I'll die some more today

Excellent write, I feel that you did a great job with your emotional catharsis; creating the mood and tone of your poem as well as making it possible for your readers to relate to it. As for me, I definitley felt that I could relate. The struggle just to go on with each passing day, those sudden feelings of hoplessness that overcome you, especially when you least expect it. Loved how you adressed the mystery of death, and your comparisons like "glass dreams' were intriguing. Nice work! :)
