Frustrations

Love it or hate it

life goes on

you can drown in your frustrations

and move on with dread

or you can lift you head up high

and go on with confidence

But how come

I never take my own advice

but rather

get frustrated

over and over again

The expectations from others

the desire to be hopeful

the eagerness to live better

is my downfall

And here I am

drowning in worries

being frustrated

of goals I can’t achieve

and expectations I can’t meet

To dread living

the sorrows

of living through each day

How am I suppose to lift my head up?
