Got that feeling
Unappealing
'stead of healing
Head is reeling
Down here kneeling
I'm appealing
To the ceiling
Are we dealing
With this rubble
Pressure double
Bursting bubble
Mental trouble

No digression
Just confession
My oppression
Is possession
By depression
Not transgression
I'm no sinner
Story spinner
Smirking grinner
Cheating winner

No, my inner
Light is dimmer
Feelings simmer
Barely glimmer
Feeble shimmer
Drowning swimmer
In salt water
Tears that oughta
Merit quarter
From this slaughter

But I'm fated
To be weighted
Inundated
Subjugated
Dissipated
Terminated

The acid test
Of my distressed
Emotive quest
Are you impressed
Or do you jest
While I attest
And bare my breast
With pain expressed?

Light I'm shining
Through my whining
Underlining
My declining
Disposition
Proposition
Hopeful mission
My ambition
Is transition
To remission
Not attrition
Of cognition
