Careening into destruction

The warning signs are clear

My thoughts are jumbled inside my head

I need to get away from here

From where I'm standing

This life looks wrong

Mistakes and lies fill my soul

Right where they belong

Nothing matters now

My life is a waste

Everything I ever worked for

I have gone and erased

Poetry is the only thing

That erases all my pain

Even if it's only for a minute

It helps keep me sane
