Everyday

by Syrus   Mar 26, 2009


I'm wandering and out of place
Searching, searching, searching
To find a way out of this nightmare
Trying, trying, trying
To find a way to be happy,
Crying, crying, crying
As this room starts to spin
Falling, falling, falling
I can't ever seem to win,
Pretending, pretending, pretending
That my life's not so bad
Lying, lying, lying
To myself just to make it through
Fighting, fighting, fighting
Just like every night I do
Wondering wondering wondering
Why this is still so painful
Feeling, feeling, feeling
Like tomorrow just won't come
Hoping, hoping, hoping
That tomorrow I can see the sun
Knowing, knowing, knowing
That these clouds are just to thick
Waiting, waiting, waiting
For my rainbow to light the way
Laying, laying, laying
Shrouded in my dismay,
Dying, dying, dying
Slowly everyday, I'm
Searching, trying, crying, falling, pretending,
Lying, fighting, wondering, feeling,
Hoping, knowing, waiting, laying, dying,
I'll become nothing more than a memory

    Thank you, it's duly noted and I thought about doing that at first (it was actually written that way the first time around), but I was thinking when most people are in distress and just crying there eyes out how we like to repeat things over and over again like "how " or "why". I felt it was more realistic this way, but personally I liked it better the other way as well.

    Very simple quote, easily understandable. The only thing I didn't like was how you were repetitive on those words like lying, knowing, etc. I know you did it on purpose but in my opinion, I think it would be better if you didn't repeat it and just put the word down once, so it's like straight to the point. Overall, good poem! Keep it up!
