Array ( [sid] => 57765 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Lament of a Bad Life [time] => 2004-07-27 12:18:58 [hometext] => I'm so sick of this life....but to end it would be doing everyone a favor....what to do, oh, what to do? [bodytext] => What is my problem?
It's always me,
Just can't do anything right....
Seems all I know how to do
Is hurt the people I love,
The people who mean the most to me....
Maybe I should just say
Forget it,
Just stay out of everyone's life....
It'd make the world so much better,
But I couldn't do that,
My job must be to make people miserable!....
Oh, well,
There's really nothing easy to do about it,
Not much choice....
My life is probably meant to be
Lived out alone,
Plagued by bad and worse choices....
The only good choice I've made,
To join the Navy,
Will probably backfire too....
Maybe I'll get sent over there
And be in a unit that gets ambushed by the enemy
And get shot....
Yeah, I bet everyone would like that.
Somebody will probably kill me anyway,
The way I keep screwing up.... [comments] => 4 [counter] => 172 [topic] => 65 [informant] => Solmyr1404 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => toughstuff )

this is a good poem. and i'm sorry that u feel this way. nobody should ever feel unwanted. the navy is a good choice, but i hope that u don't get shot. u would be missed no matter how much u think u wouldn't be. if u need some one to talk to i'm always here to listen. good write. keep up the good work.

awwww *hugs* I know when things are stacking up against you that it is hard to look on the bright or positive side of anything, but keep writing and work through things that way... to join the Navy is a good choice and I for one wish you well..

great write,

People can be most unwelcome and the way you detail this anger is incredible. Great poem. Never let anyone get to you and always hold your head up high.

everyone screws up at one time or another in their life, but it's never right to take your life because when you do, you hurt many around you, bu anyways, I hope the Navy works out for you, (everyone's rooting for that) and good poem
