Poem by me, for me, and I'm sharing

Just so you know, I don't feel like this today. I just read it again and I think I'm rather proud of it now and I want to share. Not sure why, but I do.

Failure ~ by me, today, June 25 2007

Pain, anger, hurt, all swirling around
Slipping and sliding deep down inside
Swelling up, oozing out, starting to pound
Silently I sneak up to you, silently from behind.

A whisper as soft as a butterfly wing
A slight caress like a breeze blowing by
A slice of pain, flash of red, the sting
An illusion, no more hurtful lies, it dies.

Mixed emotions dragging me down
How stupid am I, a total clown

Failure as a human, failure at life
Failure as a daughter, failure as a wife
Failure so total, failure so swift
Failure at life, failure's deaths kiss.

From day one this life has totally sucked
I was born from a weekend with no luck
Paying for someone elses kharma?
Paying for wanting to harm ya?

Why am I always feeling so bad?
Why do I have to fester and bleed?
Why must I feel the need to live mad?
Why am I denied what I need?

Failure as a human, failure at life
Failure as a daughter, failure as a wife
Failure so total, failure so swift
Failure at life, failure's deaths kiss.
