Array ( [sid] => 26408 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Why Lord? [time] => 2003-11-04 02:40:37 [hometext] => please read this!!! [bodytext] => Why me lord
what did I do?
well, I may not have done
everything you told me to

I did my best
really I tried
you know that I failed
and the tears that I cried

Why can't I
be loved who I am
But no- the me everyone sees
is nothing but a sham

Why me Lord
Why do I let me be abused
was I put on this earth
only to be used

I'm tired of
being used like a toy
an item to play with
and left for the next boy

Why can't I get back
for all that I've given
why is it that I
hate the life that I'm living

Why can't I just be loved for me
and have the respect
that to others I give freely

What's wrong with me
I give others a break
but to myself
all the abuse I take

All my life
I treat me like dirt
and now I'm trying
to show how much I hurt

My life is a mess
I'm falling apart
if only people could see
what hides in my heart

Sometimes I'm in the courner
curled up in a ball
crying my eyes out
and wanting to end it all

To be free from everything
and not having to feel
away from this life
thats too messed up to be real

I'm too scared
to take my own life
though sometimes I entertain the thought
of ending all strife

I know sometime someday
everything will be alright
but at the end of the tunnel
there is no light

Why is it Lord
in this world I must stay
I'm down on my knees
take me away

I'm tired of being
a person not whole
just take it- it's yours
I give you my soul

Oh God just help me
I'm at my ropes end
just help me and hold me
just be my friend.

Sometimes we tend not to understand what and why we go through the things that we all go through but if you pray and ask for what you are looking for and be more specfic and he will send someone who is from Him that will treat you right.
Don't settle for something set your standards and if someone comes your way pray and find out if he is the one for you. Ask if he is the one then let him stay if he is not then remove him from me. Which ever choice God gives you, you have to except.
Stop looking let the right one come to you...
Keep your head up.
Read Secret Place.
