Smooth appearance on the outside
but broken and beaten on the inside.
the feeling of immortality
and can’t find a way out.
slowly sinking under
below the pressures of life.
the mind is full of dreams.
and things that can never be.
but hoping one day
life will be different.
still consumed in the past
but striving for the present.
one day it will turn around
although for now
having to endure the pressures of life
is a struggle towards success.
