Positively Negative
Those things that I shouldn't know,
I'm over educated on.
Whenever someone says that I'm right,
I'm sure I've got to be wrong.
I'm always unsure and have a batch of doubts,
for my negativeness is all I'm positive about.
Unless I'm really miserable,
I'm never really happy.
Depression ever on the increase surrounds me,
that life alone just cannot see.
I'm confused with my feelings, and can't find any way out,
for my positiveness is all that I'm negative about.
