And I’ve looked back on the things I have done
You tell me that it wasn’t worth it
You point out to me where I went wrong
It may seem that I don’t agree
But I do see what you’re trying to say
I did some stuff that I thought I’d never do
And I ended up this way
But even though I do understand
What you want me to do
You can’t possibly know how I feel
No matter how much I want you to
I wish you could just, for a minute,
Stop and see things my way
No, I’m not perfect, I’m not brilliant
I took the wrong path, went astray
I look back and I see the line
That I never should have crossed
But after all of this time spent on the other side
It’s hard to get back what I’ve lost.
I’m sorry if it seems I don’t get
What you’re saying to me.
Trust me, I know, I get it all now
But I’m telling you it’s not that easy.
It's going to be difficult
I promise, honest I try
I’m trying my best to overcome
My fears and the tears that I cry
So promise me that you will not tell
And I promise you that I see
Even though it’s going to be hard
I just wanna know u support me
I’m going to try to patch up
These holes I have dug so deep
And just maybe, I promise I’ll try
I’ll try my best to fix me

Topic: selfstruggles

I’ve had a lot of time to think lately
And I’ve looked back on the things I have done
You tell me that it wasn’t worth it
You point out to me where I went wrong
It may seem that I don’t agree
But I do see what you’re trying to say
I did some stuff that I thought I’d never do
And I ended up this way
But even though I do understand
What you want me to do
You can’t possibly know how I feel
No matter how much I want you to
I wish you could just, for a minute,
Stop and see things my way
No, I’m not perfect, I’m not brilliant
I took the wrong path, went astray
I look back and I see the line
That I never should have crossed
But after all of this time spent on the other side
It’s hard to get back what I’ve lost.
I’m sorry if it seems I don’t get

Trust me, I know, I get it all now
But I’m telling you it’s not that easy.

Hi Jennie
Probably all of us who have offered well meaning advice blind ourselves to you and where you are at. Certainly some of the lines in this well crafted poem I feel are directed to me and it was never my intent to be part of the problem. I do want to be more supportive and less, I dunno, a pain in the posterior. Good luck!
