Euphoria strikes

I had no idea how terrible it all was

Until I matured a bit and opened my eyes

It cleared the mist that I often now miss

From the eyes of an unwilling devil

Seeing the tragedy unfold from a first-person level

I remember it all from that god awful view

The bad things I’ve done, over which I had no control

The outcomes I hoped with the manifestation of some

Who am I kidding - I’ve been among a fortunate few

Except for the fact that life dealt me an ace with a ****** *****

Not quite like anyone - an outcasted sole

With depressive thoughts - eating them straight from the bowl

Until euphoria strikes - then I’m a lightning bolt

These emotional storms - they strike me as cold

Who am I to cry and complain about life

Everyone is united by the suffering light

The random subscription to a life with a set rhythm

If only I could command my heart not to wither
