Never

I never finished what I started
Treading lightly, heavy hearted
Lightly screaming inside my head
And darkly dreaming I was dead

I never got the things I sought
And…damn, I lost my train of thought
I know that I should make a fuss
But never mind, I’ll catch a bus

I never cease to disappoint
It seems that this poem has no point
These words, they don’t make any sense
I never thought I was this dense

Fancy college should bare the blame
I never finished…what a shame
I never finished what I started
Treading lightly, heavy hearted
