Drifting Away

By Disciple_Of_Christ

The weight of my pain crashes down on me like a 50 ton boulder 
I mean my stress cant just be dusted off my shoulders 
As my life goes on i seem to be getting colder 
But on the up side i learn more as i get older 

Now im a man no longer trapped by childish things 
And im no longer stuck in my childish way
As the sun goes down the night becomes my day
I feel less in pain but my stress stays the same
And i think that it will always be that way
Very stressed out or depressed and in pain


Man my life is strange 
An i been shocked by it in every single way
I was even yesterday when i learned was my little sister did when she snuck away
It killed me an added to my stress an pain
I love my sister to death an couldn't see her in that way
Today i look at her the same
Because there's no other way shes my little sister and that will never change

Once again the night became my day
I let the past go as i begain to drift away
Because here is NOT somewhere i can stay

    I agree with wolfy here, you were straight to the point, stress is no joke and it will wear you down if you let it. 2nd to last line i think you meant to say "began" instead of "begain" anyways, another well crafted piece here, I hope you find that book bud, I'd love to read some more of your works, take care till next time =)

    Stress can be an incredible burden,. that as time goes on just becomes more colossal in size, well done, you really were spot on with this one. Scholar
