Not What I Expected


I wouldn't have imagined

That I would be here today

Stuck in this predicament with no way to move forward

But what can I say?

My past ruined my chances for the future

It won't be what it could have been

I'll only be bale to salvage what I can

Hopefully eithin a sufficient timespan

I am the quiet, the silent, the holed-up, the shy

Over the years I have had many a cry

Many times wihing to die

All that is let is an empty feeling

Just living the days by

Stuck in the place that I have always been

Unlikely to improve the life of I
