Feeling Sorry For Myself

There's no rhyme or reason to live
Ive nothing to offer , nothing but misery to give
Id sail off into the sunset but this vessel's riddled with holes
and i haven't seen the sun in so long i can almost see through the darkness   
Tried dreaming of being a child and playing in the park but the parks not there the weeds
are laid bare and the swings and rides are rusted and crustacean encrusted
No desire to wake each dawn i find harder to take , a situation of my making from constantly 
taking
Haunted by the malady frightened to insanity and riddled with guilt from this life i have built
Even God has forsaken me for granted i have taken Thee , I cant handle this persecution
God please expedite my execution , For i alone cannot find a solution

I feel like this so often, and you put this feeling so eloquently into words. You really have a talent, you just need to refine it. Keep up the good writing!
