[hometext] => Only some of this is based on my life but dont worry no one has died it's a poem I wrote while listening to an emotional song and this just sort of sprung in me.
[bodytext] => You wont ever know what pain is Until you’ve lived like me Every day a struggle Just aiming for peace I look back at people who seem so perfect So happy in their own skin And I think back and wonder Why couldn’t that be me? I have so many problems Just so incurable Why can’t I just be normal? It just not fair why they just can just do what they want While I’m stuck in bed and getting so gaunt I think back to the past Leading from the last Thinking how cool I used to be Till I started getting teased in school Then one day I started feeling sick My mama took me to the hospital wing And she started to sing The nurse came in and that’s where the crying begins She said I was sick and I would never get well I just sat there and pretended everything was so swell That this was all a dream and I would soon hear the bell to wake me up But that bell never rang and I had to realize My life was wingding down No if, what, buts, ands, or how’s It’s now that I realize that I’m about to die I sat up in my room last night and all I did was cry I couldn’t figure out why god had chosen me But I guess it’s just the way life goes Some are lucky and comfortable in their own skin And some are like me All sad and dopey It’s now that I say goodbye Still not knowing why I must die I’m closing my eyes now They will never open up again I love you all so much I know that it’s so unfair that life can’t just be one big giant funfair.
