Epiphany Please

They say life's about the journey,
I say just get me where I need to be going and fast.
Send some peace my way at last.
Enough with faith and losing it,
Surrounded by hypocrytes,
And it's hit or miss for me.
Just want to get where I should be,
But I don't know what to do.
Muddled in a shade of blue.

Hoped for the future, 
But It's harder than they say.
It sucked me in,
The undertow threatens to carry me away
I can only hold my breath for so long.
Struggle to the surface,
Gasp for air.
Spent only a few seconds there
Before being pulled down again.
Think it might be easier to give in
Get lost in a sea of nothing.

Scared of the ghosts that need confronting,
Washed up on a beach called Mistake.
The irony in every step back that I take,
Is that all I want is to stay afloat.
Fighting the waters, trying not to choke.

It's all too much.
Built this one, one brick too high.
Tower topples from the sky
Good intentions with it.
Aspirations aside,
It was only spilled me, but I still cried
Then felt like a fool post tears.
Been rebuilding then tearing it all down again and again,
Now I don't believe all that I hear.

Just need something to believe in.
Storm cloud hovers where I'm standin'
Alone crying in the rain
Camouflaged tears don't reveal my pain .
Bridges burned, then left abandoned 
Tell myself there's hope left still
If it's making me stronger, 
Why do I feel like I'm being killed?

Enough, Enough I say.
Can't think about it all today,
But in my head there's no place to hide.
Suddenly swept away with the tide,
Despite the fact that I can swim. 
No paddle to propel this boat I'm in
So I'm stuck adrift in shit creek.
Can't make my way to what I seek,
Maybe it will come to me.
Life please send my epiphany.
