Doom
The Boom of a gun
Haven’t got one
Couldn’t use it if I did.
Sadness
Madness
The Badness of life
How I’ve blown it
And I’ll never have another one.
Crying
Dying
My Trying isn’t working
I can’t make it good
And wouldn’t see it if it was.
Sinking
Blinking
Always Thinking of a way
To stop the tears
But none of them will ever work.
Dreaming
Screaming
Endless Scheming in the night
Only uses up the hours
And another day rears up.
Graying
Praying
Never Straying from the hope
That maybe there’s a better day
If only I can live til then.

Some days I feel like such a failure. I overlook any accomplishments and focus only on the failures. A therapist once asked me why I'm so ******* myself and I had a hundred answers and no answer at all. But my hope refuses to die.
