The Optimist

A person that is cursed to walk the earth without a purpose...
Going round the bend,
Around the block again,
Again.
Covering the same old ground in never ending circles.
Nothing really changes.
He's an optimistic sort,
At least that's what he tells his friends.
They don't believe a word though,
They've heard it all before,
It's boring.
Believing that he's owed a little piece of hope and glory.
Hoping for a happy ending in a horror story.
Got to get to grip with the realities impending.
It may be hard to deal with, and you might not always like where it can lead to,
But...
If you never even try to change in your directions,
Or you fail to take your shot's when fortune favours them,
Then.
Get used to what you've got,
And stop complaining.
