10. I'm not sleeping

50 13 1
                                    

all my life
beset with sadness
with promises I broke
and love I never gave

all my years
filled with sorrow
at things I took for granted
and chances I never took

but when I die
they'd say I was so full of life
when I was dying inside all day
isn't it ironic
that people die in the living room?
