Just when I thought that it couldn't get worse,
It did, and nothing could prepare me for what was in store.
My life went down the tubes and there was no hope left,
No recollection of the past
My mother was nothing but a past reminder
Of something I left so long ago
A memory that was refused to be remembered
A story that was locked shut
My time is spent looking out windows
Trying to understand what reality is
Trying to figure out my position
And finding that I am always out of place
