Drudgery

I sit here at this computer desk
talking to some of my closest friends
So frustrating how you can be so close, yet so alone
with friends comes new beginnings but too many ends.

Why do we pull away from the people trying to reach out to us
but reach out to those who pull away
all we do is end up getting hurt
so why not stay away

Maybe we just enjoy pain
or maybe we think a split second of happiness
is worth a lifetime of suffering, remembering
just more people we shall miss

Why must life be so gloomy
shouldn't it be about no-bakes and rainbows
what are we doing here
why is it nobody knows

At the end of the day
we lay down in our beds
sitting, thinking, wondering
whats in other peoples heads.

How do we stop this pain
and continue on to live a happy life
how do we rid our lives of pain, suffering
disloyalty, and strife
