Pondering suck-cess
The truth hurting
Blood spurting
A topic I have been skirting
My heart's a never ending source
Unfulfilled potential left to its remorse
Enduring life my only recourse
Evasive contentment just out of reach
Lessons life is trying to teach
Perseverance is what I preach
Sooner rather then later
Love was like a gator
Its jaws left only a crater
Others dreams coming true for me now
So much suck-cess can’t help but think wow
no one sees your struggle when you just continue to plow
Brokenness will not get the better of me
Tantalizing fantasies of intimacy
Scapes painted with the brush of insanity
Doomed to have it all
Yet not have this one piece fall
Emotional growth has slowed to a crawl
