Kill Joy

Kill Joy

A Story by Friks

What a day.

 In a moment of discontent with 
                                               Pretty much everything.
Everyone is stepping wrong
                                              Everything is out of place. 
All the stars aren't bright enough
 The daylight sky isn't blue enough
 The clouds aren't white enough
 And smiles, just aren't real enough.

I think of time as such a drag!
All these hours
 Seem to have nothing but misery to add.
Worked up
Agitated
Flammable
Highly volatile!
I am unstable and it is working on my nerves.
Even though nothing is in err
This hemorrhage of joy is
As if things are the worst that could occur!

Patience is pitiful
Haste is distasteful!
All these things I have to do
Replaced by things that
I cannot be rude enough not to do.
What a shameful rant,
What a witless grant.
What a foolish toiling
 In something of unpardoned want.

This day is just a day my dear,
And soon it will be past!
Therefore you needn't have a fear
For these empty troubles never last.

there are just some days when everything is just off; i can relate to plenty of these days. i like the stream-of-consciousness quality, it just comes off the top of your mind. there is hope in the end that 'this too shall pass.' excellent piece.

Amazing job, the last stanza was my favorite because it speaks the truth,
"Therefore you needn't have a fear
For these empty troubles never last."
Those are words to live by, but they're hard to live by, because dwelling on the past is so much easier then facing the furture, great job on this, one of my favorites.
