Joke Amongst Immortals

Unable to sleep life’s unreal without dreams  
 
Can’t R.E.M. any less in a realm relentless with rain  
 
You’d think the pills would drain the pain like yesterday  
 
The tapping fingers sound hypnotic from time to time I can’t complain...  
 
Soothing patter of running thoughts,  
overthinking inside here could get you lost  
 
It’s pathetic honestly our lives in time are surely to be gone  
 
Distractions wash away your carcasses of chalk outlines from pervious attempts at getting rest  
 
Compassionately mourning with the dropping of a casket 6 feet deep and weeping who’d of guessed  
 
Few of us are great-full for the second chance we’re shown  
 
Some hopes turn to failures and most failures lose hope  
 
The less hope a failure has no matter what they follow as a path...most religions consider us eternally the damned.  
 
Most people that relate will try and fail again thinking that life’s our punishment  
 
We joke amongst immortals and remain ashamed forever of our failure in the past  
 
We know the problems temporary but most of us want a permanent solution  
 
Sometimes I need to be reminded not to feel like I’m the biggest loser  
 
This cat may take a few lives but my best guess is beggars can’t be choosers right?
