Better

I'm never happy

Never good

Never great

Only better

Better than I was

Better to not have faith

Than to have endless hope with no cause

To always end up on the opposite end

Better to try with failure in mind

And succeed later

Than to anticipate success and meet demise

Not pessimistic 

Just realistic

To my own self.

Others may see me as a drag 

But i just know the weight I can pull

Expect the worst

Because it's better to surprise myself when I reach high

Than to let myself down.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I expect the worst to avoid disappointment. Thats just me.
