Chagrin

Anticipation becomes disillusionment

Disappointed growls from within

Eyes amazed with riddles

My life chagrin

Hope fizzles

Each day slowly spins

Astonished by all my letdowns

My life chagrin

Expectations lead to failures

Again and again

Staggered with mortification

My life chagrin

Confident of no hope or pleasure

I force a grin

Everyday the unexpected happens

My life chagrin
