In the End

Once I thought I was happy.

But deep in my heart I knew the truth.

I tried to fix things.

I tried to make it true.

I tried to ignore the pain.

In the end I failed.

Unexpectedly, when I thought it would never be,

I saw yet again, a chance for me to be happy.

For awhile, I was.

For awhile, I believed.

For awhile, I dreamed.

In the end I woke.

The pain remained, the hurt came to stay,

And for awhile I gave up.

It was so pointless.

It was so disappointing.

It was so disheartening.

In the end I cried.

Thinking back the days long gone,

I wish people would be true.

Why wait until things fell apart?

Why wait until things turned ugly

Why wait until everything was lost?

In the end I snapped.

Looking back I realized,

That everything was for naught.

Everything was lost.

Nothing but bitterness remained.

No one was happy, no one was glad.

In the end, The End.
