I think I've tried my best
And yet I'm totally stuck

It's not that I'm out of time
It's that I have too much

These shadows cast over me bring me down
I try my best to scream, but no one hears a sound

You said you'd be there
Now I know what that meant

Yet I can't let you go
Into harm's way yet again

But if I fall, I will stand back up
Because I've had enough

I will Rise Above
I dunno.

2012 has been an awful year. So why not end up with some awful, angst-ridden poetry. (Which I suck at to begin with so I don't know why I'm bothering)

Here's to a better year.

Thank you for your submission to #ZealZone. I think this is a rather good angsty poem. It's full of emotion and the wording that you chose makes those emotions clear. I like how you even ended the poem on a positive note. Very nice job!

On a more personal note. I'm sorry your year was so crappy. I hope this year holds much better for you. :manhug:
