Failed

Shrouded in clouds of negativity  
Uninspired by depths of depravity  
Cradling my lifes shattered puzzle pieces  
My soul's prison this demon releases  
 
An eternal abyss blackened my heart  
My family I let it rip apart  
I failed at fatherhood, I failed my wife  
Failed everything, I even failed life  
 
I swallowed addictions to quench my thirst  
Succumbed to temptations making it worse  
Reckless behaviors with no consequence  
I let down all my guards and my defense
 
The remnants of my past need left behind  
Before my lifes failures consume my mind
