Inadequate

The Wheel of life slowly turns:

New year, new hope but all in vain.

All in vain.

Trying, striving, never winning:

Always useless.

The years go by, never changing:

Always worse.

I see ahead, I see what’s coming

I know this path is never ending.

Another lonely wasted day.

No achievements, never praise.

Waiting for the night to come

So I can sleep.

No peace for me, no new beginning.

Time goes by, the Wheel keeps spinning.

On and on and on.

Just let me sleep and never wake.
