I DONT WANT TO

So don’t

But I can’t

Can’t? Good!

No I can’t not

I can’t can’t

I can’t not do

What I dont want to. 

 

But you try

Do I try?

When I try

I fail

Time and time

and time

Again.

Fail.

 

I’ve been good

For this long

See my progress?

I got this. 

No I don’t. 

What the heck.

I thought that

I had this. 

 

I WANT TO

So do

But I can

Can? Good. 

Wait I can?

But I couldn’t

That’s wrong

No I can’t. 

 

But you don’t try

Don’t I try?

When I try

Again and

Again and

Again,

I still

Fail. 

 

I’ve done it again

After so long

What happened?

I tried

I slipped

Did I try?

And I learn again

I’m broken.
