can't think of title

[Justanotherperson]

Just something I came up with. Many of you can relate to this so I just put it up. Felt like it. No replies needed.

I feel my sanity slippin away.
I want to live but I can't stand another day.
When the going gets tough, the tough get going.
But I don't know wtf I should be doing.
Calling for help in a distant voice
Hoping that I won't have to take that choice.
Because deep down I don't want to die
Deep down I hear myself cry.
To be honest I'm scared to death of dying
There really is no more use in lieing.
I force myself to appear oh-so-strong
But that fake image won't hold up for long.
I want to start fresh in a different life
Free from pains and other strife.
Wistful wishing while gazing at the sky
Waiting for time to pass me by.
Dreading the day as it draws near
Trying to drown all my fear.

Awesome.

When the going gets tough, the tough get going.
But I don't know wtf I should be doing.

Lord, I can relate to that right there.

Whenever I see a good poem with an AABB rhyme scheme, it reminds me of a song. When you read it in your head is it set to music, or am I alone in my melodic insanity?
