I'll never amount to anything, I can never do things right. I'm always questioned, Always second guessed. Never taken at my word, They must think I'm dumb or lazy. Maybe I am... I'm starting to believe them. This world feels too harsh for me, I want to go to sleep and not wake up. I wish I could run away, I don't want to be here. I am not happy. When was the last time I was happy? A very long time ago. Yes, minutes and even hours Of happiness occur, From time to time, But it never lasts. I'm always afraid, unsure, Nervous, anxious, sad. Life doesn't feel like a blessing, It feels like a prison.

Life doesn't feel like a blessing, It feels like a prison.
