Every day I withdraw a little more
Every day I pull further away
Every day I give you a little less
Because I'm leaving and you can't follow

My heart has packed its bags
My brain is shutting down
I try not to care about what's behind me
I don't want to imagine your disappointment

In me...

It's all become too much to bear
Too lonely, too hard, too wretched
Too many fears, too little hope
I can't fight it anymore

It's like watching a plane take off
For some great place I was supposed to go to
But I talked myself out of it, making excuses
And now I regret my bad choices

I keep saying now's the time to give up...

But is it?

Dips and flows

Ups and downs are part of everyone's life. It's never too late to change directions if you can see you're heading in the wrong one.

I read all your stories and poems and watched your progress here. Maybe this isn't your best work but it's honest. Truthfully, you worry me. You are going through a sad period of your life but it's only a small piece of it. Don't give up writing. Don't give up loving either even if it hurts. Best wishes.

a person

that thinks about structure, a new writer, ok some of it is bad, but here is the best part, you'll get better. from what i see you are trying to at the beginning of the lines and within the stanzas, you'll get better quickly

good luck
