The Second Pessimist
Nothing to write but words,
Nothing to say but lies;
Nothing to think but thoughts,
Nothing to do but cry.
Nothing to love but people,
Nothing to hate but life;
Nothing to do but walk,
Nowhere to go – so stop.
Nothing to do but die;
Nothing to do but call.
Nothing to help;
Oh-well, life’s not so bad after all!
Inspired from the poem 'The Pessimist', written by
Benjamin Franklin King.
