LIFE IS A STAGE

I sure don’t want to live anymore
It’s the anxiety I abhor
No one does anything right
All I want to do is fight

My brain will not allow mistakes made by me
I explode when others make them; let me be
No matter how hard I try to stay calm
An explosion takes place just like a bomb

My nerves take over as my head starts to ache
Just how much more should I have to take?
There is no grey as it is all black and white
Any other color and it’s out of sight

Right is right and wrong is wrong; that is so clear
Is it really the mistakes I seem to fear?
Life has got to bend unlike that mighty oak
Staying way too rigid I am bound to croak

My brain seems to know what the choices are
I am scared my own death is not too far
I am lonely, anxious and so tired of the rage
In order for me to change, I need a new stage
