Shiver

I open my eyes
again again
I see such sorrow
again again
will I ever win?
Don't you notice
my surprise 
this shiver has returned
and it's creeping up 
and down my thighs
I'm afraid again
don't know what 
to say again
why am I this
way again?
The blue skies 
are spelling decay
what's with this dispair
Again and again?
It feels like no one cares
am I the only one left 
being scared?
