W.A.S.T.E.D. (an 8 part acronym)

I.

Watch
As I
Struggle
To
Exist with my
Demons and delusions

II.

Worn down
As I try to
Salvage
The
Emotions that
Destroy me

III.

Why
Am I
So lost
Totally
Estranged and
Destructive

IV.

Why can't I
Accept
Something
That has
Eluded my
Desire and destiny

V.

Went
Awol
Stoned out
Tormented and haunted
Escaping into
Drugs and drink

VI.

Why
Am I
Still
Torn by
Embracing my own self
Destruction

VII.

Why
Am I
So
Totally lost
Engulfed by
disillusioned decisions

VIII.

Where, oh, where
Are my
Sanctuary and salvation
That will finally
End this
Depression, this desperation, this desolation?
