I fell down

It's an old poem of mine.

My life spiraling down a never-ending hole,
It always seems like I fall short of my goal.
Only dark clouds and rain come my way,
I can never find the sunshine through the day.
I wait for the day that the last thread will snap,
Everyone’s problems always seem to fall into my lap.
Every boy I like doesn’t really like me,
And if they do then I never see.
The secret key to my heart is kindness,
But since I’ve been hurt so many times I’ve developed a thick blindness.
don’t give up or be offended if I push you away,
I stumble with words because I don’t know what to say.
I guess the reason I always wear a frown,
Its because I don’t want to admit I fell down.
