Lifepoems

I toss, I turn
I need, I yearn
I lose all track of time.
Day in, day out
Fighting this doubt.
Scraping every dime.
Godless; I'm aching
Slowly, I'm breaking
And now I'll reap
All that I've sewn.
My heart is neglected.
My hatred; reflected
In this society I've known.
These lies I've told
Have become so old.
The silence is so loud.
I bottle my shame
For who is to blame?
Daddy, are you proud?
What's right? What's wrong?
I'm not that strong.
The clock ticks my life away.
Which road to choose?
So much to lose...
I keep my tears at bay.
My emptiness fades
The bitterness jades.
All that I touch, I tear.
Without the pain
There can be no gain.
It doesn't have to be fair.
I'll give up the fight
To sleep through this night.
I miscalculated the cost.
I paid the price,
I tossed the dice.
Life is a game and I have lost.
