There Are Days
There are days… when each moment crushes
While everything rushes
To some futile end
There are days… when every voice mocks me
My solitude shocks me
I’m blind to my friends
There are days… when I feel luck has played me
And choice has betrayed me
For giggles and thrills
There are days… when my ceaseless fixation
With self-reformation
Just worsens my ills
There are days… when fear shakes its rattle
Each step a tired battle
Of me versus me
There are days… when perhaps it’s all worth it
My mess is as perfect
As screwed up can be
