My Life in a Poem

- Ginoong Romantikong Umaasa

Woke up feeling so tired and hopeless 

A cycle of torture and madness 

Why does every day feel like the same?

Bloodshot, a teary eye full of shame.

Worried about the future with doubts 

A loud mind filled with scared thoughts that shout.

Waking up is a challenge indeed  ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​​

I am drowning in my thoughts, too deep.​

An empty wallet and a broken heart

Suffer, my life keeps falling apart.

Disconsolate from what I become

A struggle that's hard to overcome

Help me I am lost give me mercy. 

I wanna feel joyful and merry. 

Melancholy, I want to vanish

Silent tears at three a.m., languish. 

This life's testing my faith and body, 

and it feels like I'm just nobody.

End this please, I am begging you 

My life becomes dark without a hue. 

They say you control your own life

But there's no controller, but a knife.

If there's only a reset button,

I'll be careful with my decision.
