Existential Despair

If you are in despair,
Like, existentially,
Questioning your own value, as human,
Or p'haps humanity's,

Do not despair, you're not the only one,
I mean do, but do not,
Pick any person you see, rich or poor,
Such feelings are, have, or will be their lot,

Unless they have no ambition past this,
Meaning, where they are now,
Despair points to an unfulfilled desire,
You feel should be endowed,
For you deserve,
What life's not given you,
Because, well, you did not ask to be born,
So if you don't get what you want, then who?
