I guess I'll never know

poem by: Allan P Stevens
Written on Nov 30, 2017

-
I sit here in this room
Contemplating who I am
I got nowhere left to run
I’m feeling kinda sad
Where will this life all end
I got nothing much to show
Do broken hearts ever mend
I guess I’ll never know
-
Women, there’s been a few
I’ve had my share of love
Always tried the best I could
It was never good enough
There is no happy end
For a guy the likes of me
As I look back upon life’s regret
Don’t expect your sympathy
-
I am my own worse friend
With my self destruct overload
I press it now and then
To feel myself implode 
-
I wanted you to stay
But, then I drove you away
Pretty soon I’ll be in my grave
I wonder what they’ll say
Here lies his restless soul
Here lies a heart black as coal
Will the next life ease his pain
I guess I’ll never know
-
Should there be a judgement day
And I stand before the man
Will he turn my soul away
Will the devil take my hand
-
I am my own worse friend
With my self destruct overload
Will the next life ease my pain
I guess I’ll never know
-
I guess I’ll never know
-

(I need to stop thinking so much) lol

You must never stop 'thinking too much'.....because if you do, you will not create meaningful poems like this.....
