Perturbed by Matt Forget
Do I laugh or cry
Triumph or die
Terror is deep
Scared shitless I weep
For wherever I stand
Failures at hand
Remove those cold eyes
Or belligerent spies
Who haunt me at night
Fill me with fright
To expel my day
In the most powerful way
The shame that I see
Is all brought by me
My future is caught
In the entangled knot
As they slither away
Depart from my gray
They ran and they chant
While Im squashed like an ant
I shed my last tear
Pass through my last fear
Breathe my last air
Yet so hard to bear
There that I sleep
Dreaming so deep
As you see that this way
Is my everyday 12/27/2002 Author's Note: This was way back in 2002 so it was what I felt then. Now is a different story. I found this and thought it should be included with my works.
