Just like burnt toast on a Saturday morning, I am disgusted with myself. There is no eating, No thinking, No breathing, Without wanting the one thing I can't have. I no longer want to write-- You can see right through my words, The passion, The spirit, Makes those cowards shy away. I am the coward. Do I kick too hard when they can't move, Or am I being beaten when I'm down? This see-saw Takes away my part Before I can play the role. You ask me-- "Why do you hate yourself?" I can never be everything I hoped to be.
