What Do You Do? Poem by ana orozco

have you ever wondered
why you were unhappy?
and came up with a mindful of blank?
have you ever taken a walk to clear your mind,
and ended at the river bank?
so deterred from taking action
cause you're afraid of the result,
so choked up in your own world,
like on your neck there is a noose
you try so hard to let go
of past memories and pain
but you end up worse than ever
all that work was done in vain
so what do you do when there’s nothing left for you?
I don’t really know but it’s all up to you?
