Sometimes I Wonder
You think you can get it
straight
You just can't get it right
Your goals lost sight
Failure is an understate
There's not much you can do
You try another angle
A force is against you
On a thread you dangle
You reach;you hold on
To any thing stable
You pull yourself up
And cause a disrupt
Every action has a reaction
Ever number a fraction
When you lift yourself up in
that fashion
There is a subtraction
You take life from what you
grasp onto,seal it with a kiss
You couldn't handle what you
had to do,taking was not your
wish
You just wanted to be ok
You never thought you would
hurt people this way
