I'm disgusted when I peer into the abyssal depths of my fear.
All of my cynnical faces are snearing at me while I tear.
Streamlines of salty sensation, like a waterfall mixed with terror,
Drip deep into the ravine that mercilessly enslaves me with error.
The error of never really knowing which way I'm supposed to go,
With love, friends, money, and strange habits noone knows.
Bereft of the knowledge that it seems to take to be accepted,
By females I don't know, or the ones who aren't psychotic and defective.
I once believed I didn't need to look, for the one was near.
But the one that I faithfully wished, and waited for, became unclear.
So now I sit at night, pondering a blind and dark decision,
Of whether or not I can be satisfied without a clear vision.
With my life, I was made to be grinded into a sadly patient man.
In my room for years it seems, longing to find love with no plan.
I don't see a reason to strategize how I live just to be needed.
What I am is what they would get, only they don't grasp the signals heeded.
I love who I am, but do not understand, why my best just isn't enough.
There's nothing I can do, its so sad, so true, that life without a girl is tough.

I read this poem for the millionth time today. I'm glad you've evolved from the man you were when you wrote this. ps. sick ass poem...you're extensive vocabulary makes it possible for you to illistrate ideas that would otherwise be difficult to portray.

This poem is perfectly crafted...Like I told you earlier...your diction is far superior.

Wow . . . so sad but so beautiful and the rhymes were exquisite . . . I would say . . . your best IS enough . . . if someone doesn't see that it doesn't mean you are defective. You are right just how you are.
