Will it End this Way?

When life is hard it gets you down,

With no immediate end in sight,

When all the wrongs, and all the heartache,

Turn you ever closer to despair and misery,

When all those years feel like nightmares,

When all those memories seem so cruel,

We try to forget the pain, but know it’s there,

We try to say it’s ok, but know it’s not,

We hope that one day all will be alright,

But realise we are damaged, passed redemption,

So deeply, so emotionally, gone drifting alone in the bleakness,

Will it end this way?
