Existing vs Living

It's human nature to crave love and affection.
If we are merely EXISTING and we're seeking direction.
Yes we all may be human, but we're not all the same,
you really don't know me, you just know my name.
Are you lost on the inside?
Are you losing your mind?
Is reality something your not trying to find?
If your seeking DIRECTION, let'j just look at some facts...
Hush for a minute, sit down and relax.
Life is so short, and the years just fly by.
Father Time is a speedfreak so you know he gets high.
And one thing is certain, the struggle is real.
If you've never been there, you don't know it feels.
It's the "not even knowing", what lies up ahead.
It's sleepless nights lying wide awake in your bed.
The voices inside you are screaming so loud..
You can be in a room full of people but still
so alone in the crowd.
Good things come, "THEY" say , if you wait..
But are you a believer in things like Karma and Fate?
Does everything happen, would you say for a reason?
I say that its bullshit, somebody was teasin...
I think most people act stupid,
and life can be cruel.
Your glass is half empty, or its all the way full.
Sometimes we just have to be patient and kind,
and train all the thoughts , running loose in our mind.
You may feel overwhelmed, and even frustrated.
Your lonely and stressed out and so aggravated.
So many emotions and it just doesn't make sense.
you get anxious and nervous and it gets so intense.
But the direction your seeking can be so hard to find.
And nothing makes sense if your losing your mind.
But nobody's perfect and we all make mistakes,
and there just isn't a cure for the heart when it breaks.
Just try to stay focused , don't break, only bend.
Cuz it will all be well worth it, one day , in the end.

Author's Note
This is just a draft, it isnt finished but i asked my friend recently what he was doing and his reply was " seeking some direction in my existence " and this inspired this because I thought that was what most of us are doing.... but I could be wrong.
