The World

The world is far too big and I'm far too small

All that happened was that I got swallowed from it all

The world and it's everything consumed my whole

The intoxicating emotions forming me to a shell of null

The world and its possibilities are lost

Too far away, and the greatness of the cost

Makes me feel hopeless and done

Life is not serious, it's always a joke, a pun

The world and its love counted me out

Its happiness and companionship made me pout

Why don't I deserve a significant other

It's more than uncool to just hang around your mother

The world and its wonder did not recruit me

Others find meaning but that I just do not see

The lack of motivation filled up my life

Uniqueness had left and been replaced with strife

The world and its praise has forgotten my name

All I get is hate for playing this game

I get critizied for trying and also when I quit

The ball again just grazes the outfielder's mitt

However the world and its remorse has hit the mark

The lights have been switched off, leaving me in the dark

And no one seems to follow me there, oh well

Who would want to pull MY soul out of hell?
