Collection of Anguish

dyslexic.gun

Sometimes it can get very hard

To understand the mental cards

that it takes to play in a life 

Oh what to do with all this strife

Even worse when it's your time to draw

Cards that arent yours heating in your paw

don't put it down it would be a false move

Oh what to do when there is an invisible rule

Everyone's poker face is so much better than mine

I never wanted to play cards, my go to line

But it never was heard and especially not this time

With a burning hand, full of burning hearts

I throw the table, my mind getting dark

Just some solace or maybe fresh air

Would save me from feeling the others despair

Or maybe...I didn't like my winning pair

Invisible rules...so not fair

  • Comment from author about the poem: My day was fine but all of a sudden the collection of keeping myself up emotionally despite the anger, rudeness and just overall bad attitude around me left me drain. I hate when I get like that, it makes me reflect on my own pain (bars)

    We all play the cards we are dealt and I sense the frustration in this poem
