I feel like I’m drowning.

I feel that there is no escaping this,

No future to look forward to,

No end in sight.

My rage, frustration, confusion end in sadness.

I hear the

Drip drip drip

Of my tears as they fall

The only things able to escape.

I’m stuck between two sides

Each warring against the other

Each so sure they are right

Each so sure they have the answers

History will continue to repeat itself,

And we will regret it before the end

All I keep trying to tell myself is that

“This too shall pass”

And the only reply I hear is

“Are you so sure?”

What is the goal of all this?

How do you choose which is right?

Why is there no middle ground?

How do I find the joy, the good in all this?
