Insult To Injury

A horde of thoughts and Revelations,
All which beg to be perceived
Return my Woe and devastation- 
Give back to me the need to grieve!
In Youth had found true elation,
A childhood I'd never leave
For Life is lived in desperation
(If that Truth is to be believed)

The " dead end" feel you picked up was exactly my intention; it was astute of you to realize it. And it's ok if you didn't really like this one; every poet writes his fair share of "duds" lol And again, you are right: the title really doesn't fit, unless you take lines 3 and 4 into consideration, I suppose. Not all my titles fit the piece as snugly as I might like. I make poetic errors all the time.
