A broken man

by keasling29

Here I am on my knees again.
Praying to someone I barely believe in.
Asking for a way to fix what is broken.
If that door is closed why isn't another one open?
Bottle after bottle I try to drown my sin.
Waiting on something good to finally begin.
I burn my lungs with smoke until the days end.
If life is just a game then how do I win?
They say I am a good man but they are always leaving.
If i deserve better then why am I losing?
I am fighting so hard to find what is destined.
Giving so much to others that I end up with nothing.
I tore down my walls just to have my heart stolen.
Why do you make me feel so lost when she was just one person?
