Life is Like

April 19, 2008

Life is like a downward spiral,

I am my own living arch rival.

This battle going on in my head,

I just can’t seem to put it to bed.

Why am I always rejected?

I can’t figure out myself reflected.

I can’t figure out how to make it go away,

And where I put it I want it to stay.

So the reader I do bless,

For you do not have all this stress.
