Sometimes
I feel like giving up,
Like walking out,
Like doing my own thing.
Sometimes
I feel like I’m not good enough,
Not smart enough,
Can’t do anything right.
Sometimes
I feel like crying out loud,
Screaming out loud,
Breaking down to the bone.
Sometimes
My pain stings sharply,
Aches deeply,
Satisfies my every need.
