I thought the future held

a perfect place for us

That together we would learn to be

the best that we could be

In my naivety I ran

I fell and lost my way

Somehow I always end up falling over me



And one day

I woke to find

The future had no place

for me

I was unwanted in a world

that with my hands I helped build

Where once was honesty and pride

I now stand broken and alone

Just a shadow

of what I was meant to be



They say that
