Tomorrow

The connection I seek seems to be in vain

I shout to myself so no one can hear

the trivial trouble and the mindless complaint...

 

Why am I not perfect?

Though, it soon disappears

 

The riveting road of desperation

keeps my mind in escalation

watching the seemingly happy faces walk by

I look inside as I begin to sigh

 

We can't enjoy the life we have

if all we do is compare

We can't begin to better ourselves

if we don't delete our despair

 

Enjoy who you are

and don't look back too far

but be better than who you were yesterday.

10 minute poem? Probably not that great.
