Array ( [sid] => 14963 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => Mary Ann [time] => 2003-03-26 19:25:00 [hometext] => A sad poem about my psychotic sister... [bodytext] => I hate how they say I’ll end up like you
As you pop pills in your mouth
With a knife in your hand
Praying for the courage to press down

I hate how they say I’ll end up like you
As you abuse your three kids
While you’re doped up on Cocaine
Hoping for the day you O.D

I hate how they say I’ll end up like you
As you starve your body of food
Losing all signs of womanhood
Hoping to completely disappear

I hate how they say I’ll end up like you
As your boy friend beats you up
And you cover up the bruises
Hoping that one day he will love you

I hate how they say I’ll end up like you
As you have anxiety attacks
Worrying, and fretting about everything
Hoping for a hole to crawl into

I hate how they say I’ll end up like you
As you go out for another drink
And lose your license again
Hoping they’ll let you off this time

I hate how they say I’ll end up like you
As you end up in another hospital
And get put on all sorts of meds
Hoping they’ll give up on a lost cause

I hate how they say I’ll end up like you
As I follow in your footsteps
And learn from your past mistakes
Praying I end up nothing like you [comments] => 3 [counter] => 176 [topic] => 36 [informant] => Fiona [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Suicide )

You are your own person and you have a perfect example of how not to act. Believe in yourself, not what people say about you.
You are the only one that can determine how you will end up.

I agree with the comment above. No-one can tell you what you will or won't be. Only you can decide. I used to get told that I would never make anything of myself - I am going to prove them wrong. Wanna join me?

I have known you since the day of your birth... You have always been my baby... I love you more and more each day as I watch you face this world with your head held high, you exude confidence and you make me so very proud.. Know this my girl ...YOU are nothing like our sister! ~Jilly
