Life's Roulette

Afraid of being alone Burned out from a bad relationship I am confused,depressed,distressed I feel guilty, because it's over Hateful it didn't happen sooner Impatient with life Insecure of myself Insulted by others remarks Jealous of everyone I felt like quitting Lost and overwhelmed I'm not sorry for my actions Proud to hold my ground If my self-confidence stays

Your title is perfect for this poem. I am certainly rooting for you, I so hope your confidence stays, because the "hateful that it did not happen sooner" tells me everything I need to know. Nicely done.
