Melancholic Moment
I've been covered in debt
Smothered in laborious sweat
I dug deep enough
And then I uncovered regret
It's hard to accept
Failure for every attempt
At success
Is difficult to accept
Nothing but pain
I seem to collect
Even though I continue
To develop my intellect and dialect
I continue to regress I confess
Somehow unable
To take the lot of dots and connect
Knowing I'm doing things right
But not definite
If the methods are correct
Daily feeling angered
And detrimentally depressed
Instead of per-fect
Dire effect of distress
And stressful events
Effect the intended event
Outcome instead
Is pain and regret
About the 'MENT' of 'RESENT'
Im really hard to impress
What do you expect?
I cry, whine and lament
On the high level % of neglect
I'm apparently the subject
Of cosmic disrespect
Instead of success
My only request
Is to be blessed
In a method express
Not monetarily
But to be blessed
With nothing left
Of any tests
And grant me
Plenty se-re-ni-ty
And emotional rest
So my sense of respect
Can be left unsaid
Because I'm not sure
How to prevent
Anymore abhorring stress
