Am
cold and weary
Pessimism
striking hard
Numb
and jaded
A
cloud hanging over
I
feel anguish
Emotional
and physical
Losing
optimism
Fast
and furious
Happy-go
-lucky I was
Bright
and buoyant
Vibrant
and venerable
Safe
and secure
Life
would be a breeze
If
I knew not to care
And
wear that look of apathy
A
reply with just a glare
Wouldn’t
have felt betrayed
If
a hedge stood in-between
If I knew it were coming
Wouldn’t
have taken its toll
Loneliness
in its candour
Friendship
at a price
Trust
not easily conferred
Green
eyed and doe faced
Where’s
that sunshine???
I
was promised every day
Where’s
that gaiety???
I
went gaga for
Am
sapped of all energy
Misery,
an episode of no value
Exploitation
not a fiction
Appalling,
yet not remorseful
Wish
we were on an even keel
Wish
we had broken the code
Wish we weren’t just a piece in a puzzle
Life
wouldn’t be this complicated
Am
cold and weary
Pessimism
striking hard
Numb
and jaded
A
cloud hanging over
