Michael Smith - All By Himself

God has put him in a world.
Which a person like he cannot handle.
Nor live with knowing he isn't good enough.
Good enough for anything in this life of his.
But, he knows he's wrong for saying this.
But his emotions tell him he's right.
That he's pinpoint, on the bullseye, tip of the cliff.
It's everything confusing him as he ponders through this world.
Discouragement, failure, rejection & his thoughts.
Just eating him alive, killing every cell one by one.
Emotional crisis, someone would say, or just forget it he's crazy.
But.....It's neither of those, towards why he acts like this.
It's love, and the effects of which it can have on a man.
Catching him by surprise, thrilling him by every living second.
He can't handle it, so foolishly he continues to try.
But now he must step back from everything he lives for.
The thrill of it & the love that he doesn't have a chance with.
But he's completely mistaken this time.
Because he is running into a pit of knives so dangerous.
That might just kill him emotionally as a man & a human being.
A world he's not worthy to live in, Nor handle all by himself.
