A Height Requirement for Happiness
Confidence is shattered
Feels like nothing else matters
When you feel so small
I used to be up high
I stood so tall,
Even though on the outside I was small
I used to stand six feet tall
Life felt great,
Why did I have to fall?
It wasn’t just a trip
Or even a little stumble;
It was as if I had fallen down a well,
A well so deep they could of called it hell
When you threw rocks in it not a sound would come out
When did this sadness start?
I don’t even understand what it is about
So I lay on the ground,
Feeling empty inside yet again
It hurts too much to pretend
I miss being sane,
When will the bugs crawl out of my brain?
So many questions, so few answers at all
I miss when I was six feet fall
Now I just feel, oh so very small
