Clinging On...

Clinging on to anything
That happiness resembles
a kind word or friendly smile
just feeds the pain, my fire.

Digging myself a deeper hole
the heart ache it gets harder
without you my world is dark and cold
my needs they do get dire

I try and force myself to stay a distance
and never to give in
but without you near I cannot feel
if I don't cry or sin

My life doesn't have rhyme or reason
I'm going through the motions though it seems
I'm clinging on to feelings of others
to fulfill my own needs

Yeah this poem isn't one of my bests...but it makes me feel a little better
