"I Call Life"

Agony runs ramped down my spine.
Regret eats away at my heart,
And loneliness is pleasantly poisonous.
Hysteria traps me outside my own thoughts.
Obliquely centering me with coherence
That inflicts shame and discontent.
Yet people ignorantly try overwhelming me
with positive falsehoods to give themselves hope.
My hope does not lie within the deception of others,
But within the desire to wake up from this nightmare
I call life.
