Inconvenience

poem by: Paul Stephens
Written on Apr 14, 2017

I'm such an inconvenience
Taking up way to much room
My wife and kids don't want or need me
Seems I only brought them gloom

So I live on lonely street
Rejected by my only friend
A bitter disappointment
After believing that would never end

Is there any use of trying?
Each day I wish that I could die
What's the purpose to my life?
As I lived most of it a lie

Now I'm stuck in limbo
Not knowing what to do
No plans or any strategy
Just feeling like I'm through

As long as I keep breathing
I'll always feel the inner pain
I'm so glad we are not reborn
Wouldn't go through it again
