Misfortune

You were always there Through thick and thin and you knew But, I stumbled upon guilt…I was poorly built Thinkin' about you... I fell in love way too soon Crushed by misfortune Satisfaction please? Unconditional friendship - Returning the favor happily... I want to be a cheerful giver instead of a greedy getter! But, tainted love singed me to the extreme… Lowering my self-esteem and I just wanna scream I am so lost! As low as a puppy left in the streets, whimpering – What a heartrending scene to imagine…I feel like I’m deteriorating… Weakening by the hour…the minute…the second Give me a second chance…please, I beg of you! I say what’s up to you? And what do you do? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Say naught… I’m entangled in this knot I’ve downright fraught… You left me to rot Lay your burdens on me why don’t you!? You’ll never get my clue . . . No reply . . . I am ignored, but I’ve accepted it as normal Reality can get so cruel – but, I must stand tall Stand tall, David, you must stand tall and give it your all Give it your all and try not to fall Call on Him if you feel like your heart’s in appall He won’t reject your prayer at all . . .
