Handicap

Faithful and fading and running in place
Looking towards the sky just to get my bearings
I look up and shout
show me to the way out
One more disappointment
Water under the bridge and all that loftiness
I think where I sit
who keeps dropping this shit,
And how high do I have to climb   
to stop
A drop in an ocean of sullen emotions
If I can stay up I’m sure I’ll be fine         
or not

Please tell me what you think

    The couple of rhymes in this poem seem very out of place, and are stretches for rhymes as is. I like the or not at the end, but the short line "to stop" interrupts the flow like the out-of-place rhyme does. A good effort overall.
