Frustration

written by: OurSacredHonor

Nothing makes sense
I'm feeling so tense
All this pressures built up
Behind an electric fence
Internal fluctuation
Constant oscillation
Nothing is constant
Except my self-evaluation
I fail every time
With each and every rhyme
Although these words are mine
I feel like a mime
I can't get through to you
These silly charades just won't do
I'm sure it's confusing you too
But just think about what you're going through

Anguish
Anxiety
Torment
Sorrow
Fear of
Today
Hope for
Tomorrow
Impatient
Situations
Heart racing
Feet pacing
Relations
Temptations
Contemplation
Frustration

Frustration is caged
As you struggle through life's maze
Of misfortune and torture and pain on parade
You can't find yourself
So you look for someone else
And all of this pressure gets put on a shelf
Eventually it'll crumble
In bitterness you'll mumble
But who'll be there to catch you when you fall after you stumble?
