Haven't I Given My All?

A Cry for Understanding and Comfort

By Godwil Bradon Published 2 years ago 1 min read

Haven’t I given my all?

Haven’t I done all that I could do,

Then why do I have to go through all this,

Why, why me?

They said things would get better,

I was promised happiness,

Then why do I have streams coming from my eyes,

Why, why me?

I’m really tired,

Tired of hoping for a better future,

Tired of putting on this fake smile on my face,

Tired of forcing happiness on myself.

Maybe! Just maybe,

Maybe I’ll make it out alive,

But what’s the point of being live if you don’t have a purpose,

Why can’t He give me happiness?

Is it too much to ask for,

The warmth of having happiness,

Would it be the end of the world?

I don’t know what to do.

I’m scared of letting anyone close,

Maybe I’m not enough,

Maybe I’m too much

Cause I’m already dead inside.

Am I enough,

Am I enough for you,

I need to know,

Am I enough?

Is this it?

Is this the end of me?

I hope it is,

Maybe I’ll find relief.

Here he is,

Death!

He has found me,

And inside I’m happy about it.

The end is near,

Nothing is left to fear,

I just want to make things clear,

The end is here.
