Why are we so stuck on happy endings

When we need to focus on new beginnings?

Why do we live just so we can die

And waste our tears on useless cries?

Why do we love when we just get hurt?

The sacrifice, time, and pain we exert–

Why do we get angry as much as we smile?

Is all that energy worth one’s while?

Is there an answer to all of this madness?

Will I get past all my long-lasting sadness?

I need to have faith– I’m at the end of my rope!

I need to hold on but I keep losing hope–
