November

By VenomPlease

After the ghouls and goblins and ghosts
comes a month
Filled with desolation
No snow storms of blizzards
Just rain
Endless rain
November
It's the same every year
When it swings around again
Progress within reach
I just relapse
And start again

It's so hard to keep my head above water in the flood
From the rain
Endless rain
People drowning all around me
We're all helpless
In November

In December comes a light
Christmas lights and plastic smiles
Red and green fill the den
And gingerbread men
But its no use
I just relapse
And start again
