Waterfall

Cascading torrents of angst
Once more, I wallow in depression
Sitting in the dark
Mulling over these things
Once more I stare my inadequacies in face
Nothing has changed, he is the same
Damn
To think, that I thought I had changed
Fool\
Drenched in melancholic tones
Why am I here
Constantly losing myself
What is the purpose of this
I could blame all of creation
For producing a flawed being
But I know that if I was perfect
I would still be a problem
Sorry
Its not you, its me.
Do I ruin everything I touch
Why does the world seem to crumble in my hands
Is this my curse
And there he goes again
Blaming omens and gods
The problem is me
Forgive me
Sorry, No
Leave me in torment

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
