Wake

Things may go wrong, but is it all the time?

The only error in life is mine.

Why am I here? I do no one no good,

I’m like a long lost child under a hood.

People walk past, not even a second glance,

Anger may fill but it never lasts.

Goodbye is the only thing that seems to stay,

In my head day after day.

I thought you loved me, only another lie,

To myself, not you, I can never cry.

Pain takes slowly over sadness,

But it never helps to bring me gladness.

Take me to where I can feel safe.

And never wake.
