Unexpected Disappiontment

The incredible shame I feel
Is too much to bare.
Tell me, is this life?
Am I really there?

Tell me-if this is life
Why do I feel dead?
I need to know what to expect
In the life ahead.

Will there be more sorrow?
Will there be more shame?
I often wonder what I’d do
If death came.

This is me
I can’t be someone I’m not
Someone put me on earth
And then just forgot...

Forgot why they bothered
With one like me.
What do they expect?
What am I to be?

I need someone to tell me
To spell it all out.
For someone like me
What is life all about?
