Array ( [sid] => 62744 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => I’m a failure…! [time] => 2004-09-06 10:43:09 [hometext] => When I said that he walks without a shadow, I meant that he see’s what’s going on and yet he ignores it. He feels no pain! Where as I just fail! He must have heard them talking today. Maybe he didn’t, but i think he heard them too. please comment [bodytext] => I’ve failed one of my tests.
I’ve failed in making good friends.
I’ve failed at doing my best.
I’ve failed in stopping bad thoughts coming in!

I only know how to fail!
‘Coz all my strengths been put out for sale.

‘Coz the devils at his work.
And so here I sit tired and hurt,
All broken up, feeling like dirt.

I’m a failure!
… That’s all that makes me.
That, and the fact,
That I cut and bleed.

I’m a nothing,
A worthless waste of space.
I feel so torn up,
Like I’ve been smacked around the face…

I cried today,
For accepting what makes me.
It was only for a second,
And then I broke in three.

I couldn’t concentrate!
And my breathing wouldn’t calm down.
I couldn’t think straight.
And the voices spoke so loud.

There was noise in that classroom,
Yet, nothing had been said.
Every one was working with their heads down,
While I sat holding my head.

Then I closed my eyes and saw things,
And when I opened them nothing was there.
Just the occasional noise of our loud teacher.
And a dark presence that didn’t nothing but scare…

And I was the only one to feel it.
And to hear it call my name.
Every one else was working,
While I fell apart in shame.

I COULD ONLY FAIL!
I couldn’t concentrate on work.
I felt so frightened.
I got all afraid of sir…

Not that he’d done any thing,
It was the voices in that class room.
But he’s so loud, and big and tall.
And he walks without a shadow.

You are not a failure...
it's not your fault you couldn't concentrate
have a talk to your teacher or some caring teacher in your school where they care for you personally someone you trust
maybe then you can do it again
just remember you deserve a good mark and you can get a good mark...drumb that in your head and the noise around you will be non existant
all the best...
cheers!
