Is Life Such A Lie?

I spy my reflection, my cragged face
S ee a failure, an utter disgrace.
L ove’s too cold to allow a thaw,
I cicles hang from all my flaws.
F rightful scars left on dirty hands
E tched in the skin of unmet demands.
S tony eyes witness with a steely glare
U nder lids of old dreams, new despair.
C hore-ridden days, devoid of all hope,
H idden beneath a smile’s kind slope.
A lways commit the identical mistakes
L ay with death, slowly raise my stakes.
I n nightmares only the final truth I find,
E very door is shut, to life I’m confined.

This is awesome! You don't know how many times I have felt like this in life. But don't give up hope because no matter how crappy things are going, it will look up.It won't be right away but it will. And one good memory outlasts 100 bad ones. Good luck and great writing

peanogrl83: I loved this piece. With only a few simply lines, you have explained in detail how so many people feel about life. Keep writing because more pieces like this is what this forum needs.

You did it again.  I know how hard you are to convince you but, like ussual, this is pretty darn good.  Keep posting... I look forward to it.
