The Human Condition

I am the human condition

 

I have no self confidence,

Yet i have a massive ego.

 

I want to turn my life around,

Yet i want to die.

 

I want people to think that i have no weakness,

Yet all I want to do is cry.

 

I want to be the best at everything,

But i don't want to try.

 

I want to stop hurting myself,

But that's all I seem to do.

 

I don't want people seeing my scars,

Yet I want them to know I'm scarred.

 

When I wake up I want to be happy,

But I don't want to wake up anymore.
