Failure - Red dons

Would someone please tell me

Why I’m watching all the people

Who I grew up with

Fail or falling now

Fake

Favors were given

Apt and opportune

They couldn’t circumvent

My ineptitude

Fake

Thief of a life

Sleeping with the light on

Fake

Thief with a lie

Acting so strong

But sleeps at night

With the light on

Sleep well tonight

Sleep well now

Sleep well tonight

Sleep well child

Hope

You’ll sleep at night

Failure
