My Life

Another old poem i found... ENJOY!


In a place where pain is the main goal and hurting is the main sport,
In a place where friends turn to knives and stab you in the back.
There’s a place like this it’s sad to say,
There’s a place like this… it’s called my life.
In the place where I don’t matter,
In the place where no one cares.
It’s a hard place to live and it’s sad to say…that place is called my life.
The life I live everyday, it isn’t worth the pain.
One day I’ll escape it all,
I will kill myself and die.
I’ll be happier when I’m dead,
As well as everyone else.
No one needs me here,
I’m just a waste of space.
It’s sad to say but this is true in a place called my life.

This feeling rings true in all of us at some point in our lives I believe. I know the pain of feeling worthless, but there are some good people in this world and not ones that will stab you in the back. Terrific poem.
