Trial And Error

How did it go so wrong?
Another fatal gaffe
Social suicide
Intended for a laugh
And now
I’ve earned another mark
I’ve erred
And pushed it way too far
Carved out
Another spiteful hole
To dwell in
Erosion of my soul
I don’t want to stay
Fatigued and weary every day
It’s a struggle to want to change
When it takes no effort to stay this way
And now
Can’t stop thinking about this mistake
I’ve erred
Chastising myself
Carved out
Another spiteful hole
To dwell in
Erosion of my soul

I can’t
Remember who you are
I can’t
Remember what you did
I can’t
Remember where you’re from
I can’t
Remember what you said
I’m in a haze
Making sense of stories from long ago
Locked in a maze
Navigating through the names and tales of woe
It doesn’t pay
To pretend that you’re in the know
Who are they?
Making sense of stories from long ago
Embarrassed and ashamed
What was your name?
I see it in their eyes
Alarm, bewilderment and surprise

It's Over

A vicious circle of pain and remorse
Where we discreetly cut ourselves down to size
Trudging through all the cries and the sighs
A vicious circle of pain and remorse
When will this cycle have run its course?
It’s just so grave
Is there anything to save?
Even if there is what’s the use?
Finding redemption is less than obtuse
Half past dead
In my head
Nowhere to go
Mind prison
Tied, weighed down
Abject state
No place to run

Empathy
02:47
|

Disconnected and disappointed
Thought the page we were on was the same
You don’t have to be a bad person
To show others your total disdain
Empathy
The wedge dividing you and me
Empathy
Tell me where we can agree
Empathy
Lacking humanity
Empathy
Compassionless and cold
Didn’t know you didn’t care
I search for meaning
But I can’t find it anywhere
