The fall

I feel like I’m losing it
I’m falling on my knees to crawl, while
Everyone else laughs at me as the world falls.
I wish I could stand tall, but my legs are weak,
And as soon as the ground shakes
I fall down.
I can’t handle this world, the pain
The stress, the fury at every turn.
I want to lie there and let it pass,
But something else always comes along.
I try so hard, why can’t I keep up?
I fall behind, can’t catch my breathe, while
Everyone else has finished the race.
