WHAT DOES IT MATTER

So what does it matter
After all, it’s only me
As the world sleeps
I write this down
In my solitary night
I strain to see the words I write
My reasons to survive
My only way home
All that I have
Why do I feel this way?
Watching the shadows sway
A testament to life
A luxury I can’t always afford
I stood o the bridge the other day
Stretched out my arms like angel wings
I wanted to take that flight
But true to my hopeless nature
I fell back on an old empty promise
Tomorrow will be a better day
But damn it, it never comes
But who cares who you’re lying to
After all, it’s only me
So what does it matter
