Tumultuous mind
Tumultuous life
Ups
Downs
A chameleon
Remove mask
Hopeless
Determined
Persevered

Life
It’s just life
Life on life’s terms
Challenge after challenge
Fought hard
Lost my grip
Pushed into a corner
No exit

Pressure’s building
No tears
Methodical
Affect flat
No fear
Oriented to time, space
My reality

It’s time to rest
Time to sleep
Twist the top
Stop the clock

Invisible
Forgotten
Disregarded
Disrespected
Unlovable
Unworthy

A waste
A waste of time
A wasted life
Road closure
Steep cliff ahead
Slam on the brakes
It’s too late

She flew
Flying high amongst the stars
Twinkling brightly
Watching over
It’s time
It’s the end
Say good-bye
Say love
Find peace
