Fine

What do I feel
I’m not sure I know
I carry this burden
Because I can’t let it go
A glimpse of hope
I watch disappear
I’d say that I’m okay
But I am nowhere near
What are these feelings
I’m not sure
To decode inside my head
Is nothing but a blur
This is an emergency
That no one can solve
And the more I try to change
The issue evolves
All strings are attached
I don’t want to play
If you get too close
I always push away
So what is the problem
They always ask
Maybe they won’t think I’m crazy
If I put on a mask
So I will smile
And say I’m fine
Everyone should know
Never to trust that line

Catch-22

I hear these ideas in my head
And all of them seem wrong
I try to live life day-by-day
To move the time along
I think I need to slow things down
I’m too ahead of my mind
Everything is unresolved
And there’s no solution left to find
I’m asking the same questions
Because the answers always change
I know we think the same things
From the looks we both exchange
Our year is ending soon
An answer was never found
So maybe I’ll leave it alone
And just live in the profound

These ideas won’t leave my head
I don’t know what to do
I’ve let these issues pile up
Because they’re too difficult to work through
My thoughts work overtime
But I’m ready to clock out
And the more hours I put in
The more I find myself in doubt
I’m searching for a solution
That works for everyone involved
And the more I dance around it
The more it can’t be solved
School never once prepared me
For these answers I can’t provide
Because how am I to respond
To a problem that’s unidentified
