Again and Again, I Fall

Another day, complete disaster.
My world is falling faster and faster.
Another day- to take and to give,
Another reason not to live.

Another tear- I simply cry.
Another reason I want to die.
Lonely and lost, so insecure,
Another hardship I endure.

Another plea, a cry for help.
Again ignored, I loudly yelp.
Another controversy to debate,
Another motive for self hate.

Another failure, desperate attempt.
I smash up my heart in contempt.
Why try when you can never win?
Another reason for me to sin.

Another person who might care?
I talk, but you act like I’m not there.
This has happened time after time,
Another game I’m forced to mime.

I’m there, but you clearly can’t see,
That I’m drowning in my insanity.
I guess that you don’t really care.
Another feeling that I can’t share.

Every time I grow, I’m knocked down.
Can you turn my hurtful habits around?
I try to heal myself, try to stand tall,
But again and again, I fall.

Another day, unnoticed still.
Shall I give in to this endless will?
Another destruction I want to try-
So goodbye, brutal world, goodbye...

Very nice...although the ideas aren't completely original and your choice of words isn't uncommon, I still really liked this piece. I can relate to a lot of things you said, and it vaguely reminded me of a good line from a otherwise bad song: if the world stopped spinning, if the end was beginning, would you even notice if I wasn't there?

The flow is beautiful and though I could craft you a list of things it reminds me of, I still really liked it. Keep it coming! Poetry is a great way to get your emotions out, and I've been relaxed by doing so for over two years.
