Alive

Am i still alive
is this what it is
To have a heartbeat
To have blood through my veins
A light in my eyes
It feels as if
Its all pointless
Or is it
Sparks of life appear in the dark
And fill me with joy
But the winds of change are cold
And sweep them away fast
So i close my eyes
And dream of a better path
That i could take
But everyone is at a crossroad
And it hurts to chose
Whats the point in a heart
When all you do
Is rip it out and stitch it back in
