What do you do if your world's crashing down,
If there's nowhere to turn,
And you can't make a sound?
What if you've built your life up,  
Just to have it ripped away
And all you feel is pain, each and every day?
What if everything was as perfect as could be,
Until you rose one day
To find that it was all vanity?
What do you do?

What do you do if your faith disappears,
If hope flees,
And you are flooded with fears?
What can you do if you're helpless and weak,
If your voice is silenced
And the future looks bleak?
What can you say if your heart is a cracked stone,
If you're cold and tired,
And you feel all alone.
What do you do?

What do you do if you can't say a word,
Nobody seems to see,
And you aren't being heard?
What if you are an army of one,
With the saddest shield,
And no spear or gun?
How can you stand a chance in a world so blind,
Where nobody cares
And there is no shelter to find?
What do you do?

What do you do if you've been here before,
Faced this hell and lived,
But find that the devil's back for more?
Where do you turn if nobody will understand,
When all you want is comfort,
And for someone to hold your hand?
When do you tell them that you're not ok,
Break down and let go,
And find the words to say,

I just don't know....


TO BE CONTINUED..................

Most people would rather be certain they're miserable, than risk being happy.

Pretty good by LiveWire standards, but it's length and rather simplistic structure give it a tiresome sing-song quality and, after one verse, you do feel like you've been here before.

I was expecting that, but hey, I like the uniform style in a way... this was kinda spur-of-the-moment, and not exactly what I was planning when I decided to write a poem, but I thought it was kinda nice in some respects, so I didn't through it out...

No need to mount a defensive; I was just offering some constructive criticism. I do like the second to last verse.

Typo in the last verse, by the way: confort.

Oh, sorry, I wasn't being defensive, I was just saying... thank you for both the criticism and the compliment btw...
Sorry, about the typo, didn't realize it until just now...
