Worthless

I feel like I am falling down an elevator shaft
Walls all around but nowhere to grab
How much longer until I hit the bottom
How far have I already fallen
Once there was ground beneath my feet

Now I know my certain defeat
My aspirations filled me with the chance of hope
Gravity is not the problem with which I cope
Money, politics and hate I cannot escape
To fail is my certain fate
Life moves forward for all
While I continue to free fall
