Title: Disappointment
by Nancy from Bedfordshire | in writing, poetry
My poor heart aches
What misfortune befalls me!
I work hard in vain...the work of my hand the gods mock.
What an unkind force lurks behind me
Will I ever see the results of my labour?
Tears are what need to drop...oh but they don't.
Frustration I want to show, it fails me
What have I done?
I work hard in vain...the work of my hands
the master mocks!
What unkind thoughts follow me.
The fruits of work I do not reap.
What a terrible force it is.
The work of my hand I wish to reap
indeed I wish to .....very soon
I wrote the poem when I so nearly passed an exam but failed which left me very disappointed.
