Disappointment

Sometimes,
I feel like I should be so much more.
That I’m a disappointment,
And I don’t know what I’m here for.

I guess I could
Lie to myself and say everything’s alright.
But I know I can’t fool myself
When I toss and turn all night.

I am confused,
A loner who has exiled herself.
I’ve put me away
At the top of a shelf.

I feel lost,
I don’t know where to go.
There’s all this pain inside of me
That I can’t put to show.

So yet again,
It’s another day
I’m still living
In this way.
