Mellifluous Murmurs

A Soundless Whimper

I wake up each dawn because I get ready to awaken and head off to work

I may not be a big boss or a CEO at any estate; I may just say this because I'm a clerk 

I try to end my day by swallowing the lumps in my throat and let out a smirk 

I slap myself a thousand times once I step into solitary because all along I knew I was a jerk.

I stare out the window and find that nature is a work of art

My eyes glance back at my desk and wander onto the graphs on the chart

I anger myself and grab a dart

I put my strength in this metal point and aim it straight through my own heart

It isn't the sections, chapters, articles or anything that is separated by part

In the end, I knew I wasn't that smart.

The night comes in and I welcome its dark beauty

I try to get myself to sit down and maybe eat something rather sweet or fruity

I'd at least have to relax, right? For now, I'm finally off duty

I'll try not to be this person, I'm not prideful or snooty

Well, I may seem nice but I have the soul that has its deepest shades of sooty.
