Dark skies

 Dark skies, are above me daily,
running away never did me any good,
it's only so long before the body finally fails me,
I'm laying motionless on the ground.
but no matter how much i play dead
the pain still haunts me; the only choice i have
is to prove im still alive instead
this is just how i am, some say im gifted
others say im nothing more then just a kid
with a mental strife and a need to be lifted,
but im so far down the only way is digging farther
hoping to come up on the brighter side of this life
