Devastated; Burdens Of a Youth.

Everything I worked for,
My efforts all in vain.
The strength I trust in all null.

How am I surviving?
Bills here and there
My age bracket all successful, maybe.

They say, never soil your hands
Trust the process! Soon you shall become.

At a tender age, my heart feels heavy
Cursed be this burden
Only if things were better.

Worry not they say,
Focus on studies, be done then you can worry
Can I help it? Not at all
How can one-man bear the brunt of my debts?

I feel the weight on itself
I try my best yet it feels like nothing
How else am I getting what I want?
At least, relieve her a little.

The burdens I shoulder...
Stories I hear yet they thrive.
My case ain't any different I'm lead to believe,
Yet everything says otherwise.

Oh this tortured heart
The melancholy of souls clashing
Only it is one soul drowning itself.

How do I go about this?
If only I had more.
The atrocious thoughts crossing my mind,
I fail to achieve.
Yet the process I'm trusting fails.

Oh heavenly! Drowning in the deep of loathsomeness
Useless, I feel so often.
How is life after school I wonder.
Day by Day, I see the terror at the end of the tunnel,
No light at the end?

Wish I could be stuck here forever,
Yet it is a nightmare.
Oh help this one.
The brands I grow all fall to null

The frustrations of a growing youth,
An ever present disease.
Spreading from person to person,
Generation to generation.
