Breaking Point

Wanting to give up and knowing so is one of the hardest things to accept, but do you have to accept it?

By Josh MarsPublished 8 years ago • 1 min read

I really need some sleep I need a break from life

My exhaustion is cutting me deep just like a knife

I want to step away from it all before I lose my mind

but my conscience tells me in due time I'm guaranteed to shine

I've been awake for too long I just need to close my eyes

This feeling I despise, please don't lead to my demise

To my surprise I just don't want to give in

I'm following my old dreams thinking "Could I want it again?"
