Tragedy
Tragedy me,
Oh alas
You can see it in my face
I made the wrong choices listening to all those negative voices
That I followed and swallowed like a chocolate cup cake whole
Instead of letting it pass my lips
Or spitting it out
I doubt I will ever be able to sort it out
I traded love for alienation
Work for boredom
Depression saturates me like vinegar poured onto chip shop chips
making them soggy
Is any wonder I spit acid
Instead of being placid
and feel groggy
But every tragedy has an end
Maybe I should have a holiday to some country far away!!!

Very good title.
I like your wording, it makes me think back to some of my own poetry.
The imagery used for the chocolate cup cake was cleaver. Very good read - I enjoyed it.
