Bitter disappointment
in myself, in everything
frustration and anger
boil inside me
ready to lash out
at anything and anyone
all my hopes and dreams
shattered like glass
my throat tightens
unable to make a sound
my heart drops into my stomach
all is lost
no point in trying
I'll always end up a failure
