Meaningless Happiness

Looking in the mirror I peer into my soul Who am I now? How did I get here? I fear I'm lost Tossed into this world like nothing Something worthless Like I'm worth less than bread And I dread tomorrow Sorrow overpowers my will To go on Is hope gone? How can I carry on Like this? I miss sanity Vanity created this life Now strife is abundant In my world Hurled me into darkness An abyss of absentness Meaningless happiness Confessing its inablilities As we have known And it has shown But must we keep prooving it? We're losing time With redundant proofs Of this truth Time is better spent productively If ppl could see that They would be that much happier. Jan 1, 2011 Tamara Brown
