Plead

How can t his be happening to me now?
Aft er all I have been through, through the years!
When it starts to get better for me it
All goes south. This never ever ends. No.
Happiness is all I want from this life.
Can I not get it ever? What must I
Do to gain the pleasure of happiness?
Plead to your feet? Beg you every day? Huh?
Do you like to hurt me day in and day
Out? You are so complicated, it’s not
Even funny any more. I want it
All to be “oh so” perfect. But no, Lit-
Tle ol’ me can never get what I want.
Or should I say I don’t get what I need.
