The Future

The Future

A Poem by Brandon Mathis

This is killing me inside

Hiding the pain with a smile

I want one but I want pride

And you’re keeping me alive

Feeling as warm as the sunlight

 

Chasing through a storm

To get where I’m coming from

Trying to change or morph

But when all is said and done

What man

Will be the one

Give m a chance

I deserve that much

 

It’s getting hard to swallow

I’m getting off my path

It’s too hard to follow

It’s killing me the most

I never felt the same

Since I put down the bottles

 

I don’t want to sink in the ground

Bury me alive

So you don’t have to watch me drown

I’m coming alive

I have the will to survive

I opened up the present

To my future

 I have a better life

I will make it through
