Nothing is right.
Everything is wrong.
This isn’t the way it was supposed to be.
This isn’t the way I was to get along.
My life is empty, devoid of happiness.
Things I dreamed of lay untouched.
I’ve only had an inkling of what I
desire.
With fate, destiny, opportunity I’ve
merely brushed.
Relationships fall apart around me.
There’s nothing I can do.
Try as I may to put them back together.
The resounding reply is that they’re
through.
Money is not something I’ve ever had much
of.
But now it’s worse and food is lacking.
Things continue to worsen at every turn.
And in wait with bated breath, the
vultures begin attacking.
I see no light at the end of the tunnel.
For all my sacrifices and strength
through the storm
Everything still crumbles around and upon
me.
No fire to keep me warm.
I struggle daily to make a difference in
my life,
Giving countless hours to make dreams
come true.
But even the simplest of dreams escapes
me.
It makes me wonder why I even pursue.
I wish, hope, pray for a reprieve,
A turn of good luck.
But my clovers and horseshoes fail me,
I feel like freakin’ Daffy Duck!
“It’s despicable, I tell you”,
How my existence is filled with strife.
But no change comes.
Such is my life.
