HELPLESS

Hopeless…I’m a mess of distress
Even if it means having hopefulness,
Loved and lived life hopelessly…helplessly dying…crying…lying to myself…
Positively sure there’s no way out and I only have myself to blame…same old empty feeling once more…change is a challenging chore…to the core…you’re the one that I adore…I’m feeling sore
Less or more, unless I feel more of what I truly adore — 
Si, si, estoy triste (yes, yes, I am sorrowful in Spanish) — I am…so dumb and helpless like a sham, yet I’m as strong as a ram
So helpless like a dam, yet gentle like a lamb
