Struggling

Struggling

I'm struggling to survive
I am barely alive
I must have a purpose
I must strive to find it
This world is so cruel
It's only getting worse
I sit and wonder why am I here?
I have to find my purpose
I have to stop just living to work
Start working to live
The person I am meant to be
What I must do with my life
As of today I move forward
I will find my purpose in this life
I will stop struggling to survive

Much the same thing could be said about the reasons why we write as well, Michelle.
Is it better if we write to live; i.e., eking out a meager living selling poetry and stories to publishers here and there?
Or, is it more beneficial to us to live to write because we simply love doing so, without worrying about whether or not it gets published?
I write to purge my soul.
I believe the same could be said for the majority of poets and authors here who simply love the art of writing.
Misery does love company.
Well penned, Michelle. Keep up the great writing.

There's no religion

But there is.
