Have You Ever.... Poem by tonya truitt

have u ever felt like a blank nothing at all?
experienced mental agony and pain?
endured a hard, grueling fall?
have you ever lost every shred of hope?
been convinced you had nothing to gain and everything to lose?
realized that you just could not cope?
thought there was only bad news?
Well, I hope you never feel like that.
Cuz' it's like going to... a million times.
Pray you'll never want to go back.
Hope one day you'll realize..
Tru and real happieness in this world.
Not beauty, charm, stuff, or a boy.
But peace, faith, dreams, and joy.
have you ever believed all ur loved ones died?
felt you were trapped in a never-ending hole?
sat there and just sobbed, balled, cried?
been sold that you had a cold, heartless soul?
have you ever yearned for just one true friend?
thought life would be awful till ur last day on earth?
heard your parents fight and wished it to end?
known that every moment of yours just wasnt worth?
Don't worry, babe, keep ya head up.
