Did you ever feel quite suicidal since success you never may know <br />That despite your hard work and best efforts for your time you have nothing to show <br />Quite bored of your unhappy existence you know what the hard life's about <br />And for you an inglorious ending may not be a bad way out <br /> <br />Of the worries that surround you nothing for you is going right <br />You've grown tired of making ends meet life's a constant uphill fight <br />You keep buying the lotto tickets hoping for a dream come true <br />But as in life in lotto the losers many and the winners only few. <br /> <br />You are not the only person for to ever feel this way <br />There are millions of people all around the World Today <br />Struggling just for to make ends meet doesn''t life seem so unfair <br />In a World where thousands must grow poorer for every new millionaire. <br /> <br />Did you ever feel so despondent that you went to bed at night <br />Half hoping that you would not wake to see the gray dawn and daylight <br />That the Reaper he might claim you before your appointed time <br />Even though you are only middle aged just a few years past your prime. <br /> <br />Did you ever feel as others do that you have had enough <br />That the whole World is against you and life on you is always tough <br />But you''ve lived with disappointments and you''ve overcome despair <br />And despite your poor existence you always hang in there.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/did-you-ever-feel/
