Loser
I feel as if I’m inadequate,
No job and no money, worthless…
I’m sad and jealous…
I feel like a loser, with nothing
To show,
I feel fat and gross,
Internal battles are plaguing me…
I wish I looked different,
And had something to feel proud of…
I have nothing to contribute,
And I feel like a burden…
I wish I could go to this and this,
And buy lots of groceries…
My self-esteem is at a low,
I see nothing but flaws…
I hate looking at myself…
No job, fat, gross, worthless…
I feel like a loser…
In my eyes, everyone’s prettier,
More successful and skinnier…
I yearn for confidence…
I want so badly for money, and a REAL job…
Instead I’ve nothing,
It’s not that I don’t try,
I try so hard,
And with every day that passes,
No call, no emails,
I feel worse,
My heart gets heavier…
I don’t want to eat in fear
That I’ll gain weight,
I don’t like my arms, stomach, and legs…
My smile is crooked,
And I have two chins…
I’m tired of my internal struggles…
Hearing my thoughts all day…
I wish I felt better,
I’d give anything…
