Reality

Backwards and forwards Life takes a turn This is most often what we don’t deserve Life’s a disappointment Covered in shame Crushed with confusion Sadness and blame Struggling and hustling Just getting by We are exhausted, Shaken, we cry Anxiety clutters us Tension is splattered We are exhausted But what does it matter? We reach for solutions Are thrown back in the cell Having to face this intolerable hell Things can be caustic Existence is brutal We are destroyed And our Efforts are futile Hang on, oh dear ones The cycle will change And we will extinguish This horrible pain We’ll overcome And come out as victorious And our newfound reality Will emerge as splendid and glorious
