(A Rant...not really a poem) Something's missing...

"Something's missing
And I don't know how to fix it
something's missing
And I don't know what it is"
  -John Mayer


I really feel like something is missing in my life and I'm not quite sure what it is. I am a 25 year old college student. I have been in school for the last 7 years but it feels like forever. I am STILL working on my bachelors degree. I have had some bumps along the road in my education but I haven't given up...yet. I am feeling very, very frustrated with how long it has taken me to get through it. I am feeling absolutely no motivation to work hard on it anymore because I have been at it so long. All of the people I have gone to school with and been in classes with have graduated and here I am...still trying to finish. I am happy in my relationship. I have an amazing boyfriend who really means the world to me. He makes the gray skies seem a little lighter. My job is okay...not something I can see myself doing for the rest of my life but it works for the time being. I mean...they pay for half of my schooling I am not really a religious person. Not sure how I feel about that but I figure it'll come to me when I am ready for it. I just feel like I am struggling. I feel like something is missing in my life but I can't put my finger on what it is. I am sitting here crying while I am writing this because I am so sad...I don't want to hurt anymore. I feel like something big is missing...I feel an empty spot. How can I figure out what it is? I don't want to cry about this anymore but I don't know what is missing so I guess I really can't fill the void. I thought that writing more poetry would help but I can't find any good inspiration. I didn't have a great childhood so I can't go back to those 'happy' memories. Each time I sit down to write...my page just stays blank. I type words and then immediately delete them because they sound stupid. I really don't know what the point of writing this is other than to get it out so maybe things will get better...I guess I can stop now. I've filled up enough space. Thanks for reading this...I'm sorry for wasting your time


Author notes

You don't have to comment if you don't want to...I just wanted to get these things out of my head...

This is more of just a rant...a spewing out of feelings but I wanted to get it down on paper/cyber-paper. I started thinking when listening to a John Mayer song and this is what came of it...
