It’s Never Good Enough

Whatever I do is never good enough for you

You expect too much out of me

I’m not a little kid anymore

You’re getting to me slowly

I feel your presence lingering around

It’s weird now

 Lauren-ash

You are In My Heart

I can feel your chilling presence every time I’m sad

You whisper into my ear” Be Glad Little child”

I feel your tap on my shoulder

My arms suddenly get colder

I close my eyes and I can see your face

Its glowing beyond the human race

I fall to my knees and begin to pray

I ask God to help me today

My heart opens slowly to let you in

I tell you no God I sin

You smile and turn away I am left with nothing to say

I go to my room and cry

 I Tell myself I want to die

I go to the shower

Feeling little power

and then I put  my head under the water

 I drown…
