Life

Grade school, high school, college n university,
Our lives were laid out for us to succeed.
Decisions, decisions, Will i make the right choice? 
I could ask for guidance, will they hear my voice.
My life started out on the right path,
Tho the positive things sure didn't last.
Never made a team n struggled with my grades,
Would have switched places if they were willing to trade
At recess I sat alone under the big maple tree
The girls and boys just laughed an talked about me
Always the last one to be picked for a team
Why did they have to be so cruel and mean.
Can't say I ever had a good day, not even one
So i said "screw this" n began to run.
Responsibilities were gone, i no longer cared,
My family n loved ones just stood there n stared.
Self medicated, doctors, hell even a shrink 
There is no fixing me despite what you think
Just wanted to feel better, whole n complete
Nothing i tried gave me any relief.
The days turned into weeks, months into years
Would anyone even notice if I just disappeared.
Life never changes no matter how hard I try 
So what's the point I ask, as I sit here cry.
