Chapter 469

I Really Don't Know Why

The words keep coming
I can't make them stop
Why can't it end
Why can't I drop

Through life's daily slog
I now speak like Underdog
Blinded by light that is night
Yet trapped in a fog

This is where they come from
This is how the words flow
The hope and joy that was within
Has again lost its glow

With each new word
I fall deeper and deeper
There is no way out
The path grows slippery and steeper

I keep getting upset
As each second goes by
People only understand pain
I really don't know why

Nobody
