complacent and ashamed
with insufficient mental capacity
don’t speak unless they ask me
my words are not worthy
too weak for integrity
too scared to succeed
the failures pile up
don’t wait for me
so tempting to succumb
the relief would be sweet
keep trying or lay down
keep smiling for their sake
self deprecation is an art
to relieve the guilt of being alive
optimism is just
climbing higher before the nose dive
unspoiled beauty
wilted fast
happiness rendered null
because how long will it last
