Why Do I Struggle So

Why do I struggle so?
When all I want to do is go
Life is not what it seems at best
And I know that this is all a test
But I’m tied and I want a rest

No one seems to hear my voice
Even when I burden by this choice
Once the feeling of love dwelled deep
And now all I seem to do is weep

Things are not as I had hope they would be
I seem to caught within an endless sea

Is it true my heart is like the ocean?
Mixed with all this sad emotion
I hear the whispers of death that call
And all I seem to do is fall

My heart is hollow and bitter cold
Once I was young and now I seem so old
