Why do I do this?

• Artist: Snailes
• Description: This is a poem I wrote a few weeks ago when I was going through a rough time. Writing is one of my ways of coping, so some pieces of mine are really personal. This is one of them.

It's so hard to even care
What's the point anymore?
Day's weeks, months,
They're all the same
One constant experience
Of absolutely nothing
Nothing worthwhile


"Just keep going"
They say, but for what?
Could it be for
The salty taste of
Tears on my lips?
The pain of my fist
meeting the wall?

Why do I do this?
What is it?
It's on the the tip of my tongue
I swear I could almost
Taste it
Yet it's more elusive than
Anything before it

Something to believe in
A reason to continue
It's what I need,
/So badly/, and
I know it's somewhere, so, so close,
So why can't I find it?
