i'm a mess

but it's ok.
i'm detached and despondent,
but tomorrow is a new day.
it's hard to see past this wall of pain,
but i know something better is on its way

just have to believe
just have to see
have to know
you're all i need

looking for something i'll never find,
a futile search
within my stubborn mind.
remind me again of who i am,
where i'm going,
and what's left behind.

i fear my failure will only get worse--
this is a play that i've yet to rehearse;
i stutter and stammer and butcher my lines
this tired, broken speech instead of beautiful verse...

just have to believe
just have to see
have to know
you're all i need.
