Just when it began it was pulled from right under
It only just started but didn’t take long to crumble
Thought it was something that could last forever
Now thoughts are circling like vultures
Feeling down in all situations
Which way can I turn now?
Knowing no matter, the directions it was over in a flash
Started up quickly and disappeared the same
Time to call it quits, which I never thought we would
Feeling stupid for all I did
All I had planned just went down the drain
Now I’m circling that drain once again, round and round I go
Trying to pick up the pieces that just keep falling through
This game has come to an end and a new player has joined
Little one didn’t ask to be here, but we created this great human being
Now the game is over, and he’ll never get to know you
I’ll raise him as a family of three once more
All is falling around me
I’m drowning more and more
With each breath I take I feel like I’m falling
This dark whole opening up and swallowing me whole
You started something you knew wouldn’t last
Let alone want to try to accomplish
You made assumptions and treated the same as the rest
This game has come to an end
Now where do you stand?
This whole will get deeper before I rise
Possibility seems small on that part
You’ve left me wounded and all alone
Two children and all else that is going on
This game came to an end before it began
Now where does the future lead?
Nonsense that wasted everyone’s time
You didn’t care who got hurt
Introduced you to the most important one in my life
You let us both down, now consequences have risen
I’m dealing with the pain, a little heart that needs mending
Thought we had something
Guess the game wasn’t worth saving
When will I find the finish line?
Feels like there isn’t one
A never-ending game
All alone with nothing else to give
I’m hopeless and not willing to try again
Heart has been ripped from my chest once again
I’m tired of the games, especially the ones we don’t win
Why bother trying again?
Nothing will work out, this hole will remain
I know I am strong, but how will I go on?
Emotions swirling around like a circling drain
Game over, not how I expect 2020 to begin
Guess I’ll start building once more
Where to begin when all else feels like it’s crumbling at my feet
Feelings lost and insecure
Trying to make the best life for two little ones the best I can
Where does this path go from here?
I guess we can only go up from here
Game over and here is to a fresh start
Family will come first and nothing more
Accept the way it is or just move on
No time for the games you want to play
Too much crazy already anyways
Don’t begin something you can’t finish
Don’t assume it will all change
Adapt to what you got yourself into or just leave the game
A few already have, what is a few more who keep moving on
Game has come to an end
A fresh new beginning will begin
Now is my chance to do it right
I won’t make the same mistakes once again
Spreading the positive mind set and love
Raising gentlemen
No more games, I don’t have time
This game has finally ended
Let’s being the next one
