...Nothing Makes Sense...


Nothing makes sense…it's all jaded and confused,
I'm trying to control my mind…and lose these blues!
But my heads mixed up with thoughts inside,
From which I can't lose, I can't run or hide!

I'm strong of stature and true of heart,
But it's hard for me now to try and impart…
…What I am feeling, and what I did feel…
When my life was a mess and nothing seemed real!

I have double thoughts inside my head,
Good and bad, about being alive and dead!
You see, in the blink of an eye it can occur,
Where life's in the balance and nothing seems fair!

But the choices we make through out our life,
Deem good and bad, and happy, sad and strife.
For me at this time, inside my head…!
Are fears from the past – and into my future ahead!

I am a strong person, this is so true,
There's never anything much I can't do!
When I need strength, I dig deep inside,
Pull it to the surface for there's no need to hide!

And when in any doubt I raise my eyes,
And ask for help, from this Lord God so wise.
I only want to keep the positive strong,
To keep me sane and help me along!

But I have two sides, like we all do you and I…
And yes, even me, at night I sometimes cry…!
I think I do well - I'm as tough as can be…
And it stands me good stead, as you can see!


And yes sometimes I fall, waiver and stumble,
And also at times in tears, I often crumble…
But it's allowed, for we are human you see,
I am like you, and you are like me!

So now I'm at a crossroads in my life…
Nothing makes sense, my mind's full of strife!
I have both emotions going on inside,
Strength and courage, and a weakness I can't hide!

I wrestle within, for in turmoil am I…!
Is it any wonder, that at night I cry!
I have to fight the good fight to keep me strong,
To attain self esteem, for anything less is wrong!

So though I falter, waiver, stall or stumble!
That doesn't mean I'm weak or that I'll crumble!
It means I'm normal, human like all…
But fighting at the moment so that I won't fall!

But though I have fallen, my strength did strive…
To keep me sane, and to fight to stay alive!
It may look like I'm weak, and not up for the fight,
Well take a look at me here!  I'm still alive this night!

So yes, I get sad and down and blue,
But always, always I know what to do!
I pick myself up, brush myself down…
And start again and remove my frown!

For I mostly smile at life, and I love laughter!
In fact I have to say…it's all I am after!
A happy and contented, peaceful loving life…
Without getting too down with fear and strife!

Nothing makes sense, or does it, do you know?
So for me, I think I'll just go with the flow.

…And See If Nothing Makes Sense…
