My mind is blank, <br />my body numb. <br />Who is this in the mirror looking back at me, <br />what have I allowed myself to become. <br />All my emotions drained, <br />my thoughts are scattered. <br />Been hurt too many times, <br />my heart broken and battered. <br />All hope is gone, <br />I've lost everything thats ever mattered. <br />I feel I have no future, <br />all my dreams shattered. <br />This is my last chance, <br />I'll give it all I've got. <br />Even if I die trying, <br />A failure is what I am not.<br /><br />Candy Simpson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/last-chance-20/
