Gasping For Air
Worried and wailing,
How tired I’m getting,
Problems arising,
People despising,
Gasping for air,
Heart is a thumping,
I must beware,
People are cruel,
Some don’t care.
Worried and wailing,
How tired I’m getting.
I told her my worries,
She said, “Go Away!”
I have nothing but stories,
Nothing real to say,
Verbally accused,
Of being unreal,
Sent away and refused,
Nothing left to appeal,
Worried and wailing,
How tired I’m getting,
Problems arising, people despising,
Gasping for air,
I have a question,
Is it my indigestion?
Or just my regression,
Fading away,
With no place to lay,
Just have to say,
Worried and wailing,
How tired I’m getting,
Problems arising, people despising,
Gasping for air,
Even so, I care.

At times I wonder how people can be so indifferent with each other, so much hate and crime in the world is quite depressing.
