The Wheel Keeps Turning

by Norman John Henry Campbell   Apr 27, 2008


The wheel has turned again and again
I'm still making the mistakes I used to
Make. I ask for guidance and I don't
Seem to receive it. I don't feel I can
Accomplish anything. Others say I can

But yet again I sit here and think, and
Wallow but that will get me no where
But yet I still sit. You were the one I loved.
But yet we broke each others hearts.

Still I ask and still I don't think
You could answer it. You were there
When I needed you the most and still
I need you, but you're no longer there
As much as we want too be I
Don't think we ever will again.

Maybe we should just forget each
Other you seem happier where you
Are, I thought I would be, but really
I'm not. I thought things would change
But I have finally figured out things
Never change for me.

So the wheel keeps on turning, and
I keep changing, or I think I am.
You can change the appearance but
You can't change the person, I
Fight my demons and I fight what
Feels like a losing battle, I can't win
No matter how hard I try. So why do
I keep on fighting for.

Maybe I think I will win?
Maybe I think I will be free?
You were right you know,
I have gotten worse in my
Depression since I have
Been here, I want to die
But I can't.

The wheel keeps on turning
And still nothing is different
I want to leave but I can't
I want things to be different,
But they aren't

But one thing I learnt is nothing
Is different for me. So I keep
Fighting and still I keep losing
So why keep fighting, I keep
Fighting hoping for the
Day where I win.

Then I'll learn that
This all happened for
A reason, babe I love you.
Please don't forget about me.
As I wont forget you.

As I take this my final
Breath you are the last
One I think about, the last
Love I ever had.

And with my dying breath
I see our photos and remember
How happy we were, and with
My dying breath I die with a smile
The first real one in years.
