POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Forget the world!
16 years in the making and I’m still alive
But it’s not cause’ I sit around, its cause’ I strive
To do something better than your average Joe
I will never stop striving for something more
I just want to do something better with my life
I don’t see why you’re giving me so much strife

When everything around you is just so horrid
And everybody reminds you of what you lack
Ya I only have one thing that is holding me back
This one thing makes me feel like I’m useless
This one thing makes me feel like I am worthless
Like I’m a mistake, a pain, a waste of space
And at this point in time I only have one...
