Life Isnt Good

Unfair treatment at the hands of a boss 
Power mad, slanderous causing me loss 
Invalidated, worthless and lost, 
Friends disregarding never giving a toss 

Walking alone with no purpose or value 
stuck in a zone where there’s no me and you 
an individual lost, pointless confused 
Never awarded rewards always feeling used 

No one cared now neither do I 
Life is unfair and then you die 
Down at rock bottom living life 
Treated rotten through selfish lies

All at the hands of the bitter and jealous 
Going against me in all that develops 
And Telling their lies to all other fellows 
Those thoughtless folk who only follow

Now numb and removed with no desire 
Spent all my effort now there’s no more 
I can’t find a spark an ember or fire 
Psychological warfare I’ve had to endure

Never give up and one day it will change 
Why are humans so selfish and strange 
Already got me then discredit my claims 
Death follows life with nothing that pains 

I’ve lived defeated while others succeed 
They beat me down in my hour of need 
I helped them out pulled them back to feet 
Death follows life and I bet it’s more sweet 

Living a life where you do not belong 
Without a worth and you’re not strong 
When you’re not interested in carrying on
It matters as much as it will when I’m gone
