Sometimes

Sometimes | do things because somebody else is doing it Sometimes I search for answers and never seem to get any Sometimes I fall in love, sometimes I fall out of love Sometimes I hate waking up in the morning,

because I’m afraid of what the day has prepared for me Sometimes I question religion, sometimes I believe Sometimes I regret, sometimes I achieve

Sometimes I cry, out of pain or happiness

Sometimes I wanna be that somebody that has everything Sometimes I wish I had nothing

But why? I want it all the time

I want to do things right and wrong at the same time

I want to find answers and be able to question

I want to fall in and out of love

I want to wake up and enjoy whatever the day might bring I want to believe but also receive

I want to cry and laugh and know that its okay

I want to have everything and nothing

But can you ?

Can you look at the moon and feel its beauty

Can you stand the desert’s heat

Can you touch the rain drops and grasp tight with treasure

Can you tell when your tear drops would stop falling

Is it when you wipe them away, or just let them run down your face Can you look at me now and tell what am feeling

Can you enter my heart and tell it like it is?

All I want to know is, if all I am saying is real - Sometimes I push too far 4 :

I can’t turn back, I can’t come back,

Sometimes.
