I've been out on my own for months, trying to make a name for myself.
I've changed so much, yet at the same time I feel like I'm done so little.
Why does this spirit called fate prevent me from seeing my family?

I try to call my family and they answer, but it's not enough for me.
I try to better myself in this isolation, but it doesn't do much justice.
How will I ever succeed in this world if I can't make the effort to do it?

If you'd like me to be blunt, I think of myself as a failure.
No one knows the real me like I do, and that's just a fact.
Who the hell cares what I say or do for a living anymore if they can't see it?

It seems as if someone wants to know what's on this troubled mind of mine.
If that's the case, then maybe there's someone out there who cares.
What does it really mean to live in this cold world when you're all alone?

I'm just one man out of over seven billion people, and one man is nothing.
Then again, I'm not so sure that anyone would care about that.
Where will this winding road take me now that I know what I know?

The world may never know, and neither will I.
I'm going to rant for a little bit, so please bear with me.

First of all, there is so much corruption in the world these days. A person simply cannot live in peace for five minutes without some government scandal breaking loose on the airwaves and it's ridiculous. Every time I turn around it seems like the government's doing some sketchy stuff behind my back! I just don't get why every day in Congress has to be like that. I don't! And can you blame me?

Okay, that's as far as I'll go. I just wanted to share this poem with all of you today because I really felt like crying my eyes out over my family and I didn't know what to do, so I got on my laptop and starting typing my feelings. 

Everything in this poem is just my way of telling an honest truth about a life that I want to lead and the life that I feel like I need. Consider this one another unleashing of mental demons.
