Unreachable

This depression is unbearable...
My life is like a roller coaster:
Tight turns, loops, highs and lows
Why must I be led to be this way?
Girls, all their good for is getting my hopes up
For it is like window shopping:
You can look all you want but can never touch
She seemed oh so close to touch, like air
Yet my efforts were shot out of the sky like a jet
These feelings are omnipresent...always there
I fear this will be the story of my life:
Tears, fears, heartbreaks, crushed hopes
A chance is all I ask, to show what I am made of
But every time, no effort is even put into pushing me aside
Is my pain and despair that transparent?
Take this knife, dull and rusted with age, and cut out my heart
Now, use this bat, filled with nails, and crush my heart
Hold it in your hands; feel it struggle to pump;
thump...thump.....thump........thump........
Let the blood drip down your arm and fall to the ground;
Left to defend for itself against life.
Deprive it from its life, its love, and its duty
for it is no longer of use to this hallow soul;
Like the man who wakes up, goes to work,
Comes home, goes to sleep.
No life, no love, no joy.
Blank eyes, emotionless expression.
