Intro To Me

This world is cursed with many afflictions
But we cope cope thanks to our addictions
Some are concieved into drugs, born into hate
It's not our fault , ..its just our fate
Kicking through thick layers of pure madness
You can call me insane, I'm just numbing the sadness
I've grown quite bitter throughout my years
     I'M ALL BURNT OUT,,, NO MORE TEARS
Disapppointment- has become a habit
Happiness- its somewhere, just forgot to grab it
Enjoyment- forever followed by persecution
You can't judge me
You wish you could do it
Your lives revolve around material things
Convincing yourseves your better than me
You could be right, I don't know
I just wanna be done here, i wanna go HOME
Voices screaming inside my head
Memories of my grandma sayin  I WISH YOU WERE DEAD
Society waiting with knife in hand
They want me to fail-- best chance to stab
I used to wear an armored jacket
I took it off though
NOW YOU CAN HAVE IT!
Don't confuse yourself man I can handle it
I'm not scared, GOD PUT ME HERE DAMN IT!!!!!!!!!
If you found this what would you think?
Just accept this as
AN INTRO TO ME

You have friends here,if you will accept us.One of the best things I learned when joining Poetry Soup, something I would never, ever have expected,was to find all these kind hearted people out there.I haven't met them face to face, yet know they are caring, understanding, non-judgmental, and encouraging. We have made a significant connection through our poetry.Open your heart,and let it all hang out if you need..we won't judge, we hear your pain and care.We don't need to know you to care.~Carrie

Consider yourself accepted, and welcome to the soup. I don't judge, except if you don't mind, I judge your writing to be excellent. Perhaps you stumbled upon this site as a turning point in your life. A good one. I am full of hopes and dreams for you and I don't even know you. Good luck. Keep writing. Love, Shar
