The Elders Have Tried

The elders have tried to show me how far away,life was from the truth,they have tried to warn me,they have said along the path i was on ,there were path holes,the truth was i hated the truth. Now that am in this deep dark hole am so full of regrets,but the elders have tried,they have tried to enlite me,they have tried to tell me that the world might seem very fascinating,but the real side of it was never fascinating like i thought. They've said thereal side of it was never friendly, but boorish,unlike my role modle who died in my year of birth,i don't just cry sometimes but i always cry, for the tears falling down along my poor narrished pink cheeks,am the one to put a blame on. I have no one to point my finger to,saying is your fault,instead i got to point it back to my self and admit that it is my fault that am in this deep dark hole,as for the elders they have tried with all they had,because they had forseen. But i mr know it all,i mr know it all,i played i know all,I had that thing that a man got to have a scar,i fooled my self that i got to see the unseened,which the elders said were beyond me,and believe you are not ready to see those.
