Hopeless

Hopeless

© 2017 by J. Krebaum

I'm all on my own

Challenges come and go

Nothing's as simple as it seems

When looking for a way to succeed

But there is no hope at all

There is no hope

That I could do better

That I would do better

But I could do worse

There is no hope

That I could do better

But I must do better

Or I will get worse

Facing the future

My education uninsured

When I try to learn something

I black out from my anxiety

Thinking there is no hope at all

There is no hope

That I can do better

That I will do better

Before I get worse

There is no hope

That I can do better

But I must do better

Or I will get worse

Or I will get my feelings hurt

Before my stomach starts to burn

There is no rope to break my fall

There is no hope

But I can do better

And I will do better

Before I get worse

There is no hope

But I can do better

Still I must do better

Or I will get worse
