Poetry: Suffering

All alone in this big world,
Sadness, darkness, and misery,
Every door I try to open is locked,
When all I want to do is get my foot in.
I will never be smart enough, pretty enough, or skinny enough,
I will never have enough money, or that dream job,
There are obstacles I must always face.
As I sit alone and stare out the window,
Feeling the warm sun shine in on me
Trying to find a way to escape from
this situation.
Fear of moving forward,
Fear of going back,
Fear of the unknown
is always a deciding factor,
Knowing, wanting to know,
What is in the great big world
for me and my destiny.

    and pain taunting me in a masquerade!

    Blood dripping down my body as I pray for death!

    If we all drew our lives,
    there would be many holes in our pictures.
    A moth made those holes.
    A moth is
    death and decay.
    A hole

    There is no end to suffering
    and so I cannot rest
    my mind is forced to wander
    along the frozen paths of death.
