Disappointment


From grass to grace just failed.

oh! Ain't no grace in what i face.

I Traveled overseas to see a change.

I guess now i know what they meant when they said

"the grass only looks greener from the other side of the fence."

 

life is almost becoming meaningless.

Living in the days you've waited for, for years.

Being so focused that everything else; pointless!

Just to realize that all the time and effort you put; wasted!

and that the reward was not... was nothing worth all the stress.

 

However it's too late now, two weeks in fact.

There's not much hope for the future than there is for the past.
