Her
A Poem About Frustration and Disappointment
I don't know why I even bother
Don't know why I try
She throws my effort in my face
She kicks me when I'm down
And kills me when I'm up
My psyche breaking down
Under the pressure
Under the stress of her lies
So tangled in this mess she's in
I cannot break her out
So lost I cannot find her anymore
She's not the one I knew
Years ago
She's not the same anymore
Where will this path lead her?
I can't fight the pull of everything
At once
In twenty years, what will happen?
Where will she be then?
I can't tell
I can't change it
I don't know why I even bother
I don't know why I even try
To save her
