I'm sorry...
Why did you even create me?
I'm sorry...

Sorry that I'm not who you want me to be
I'm sorry I fail...
I'm sorry that I'm not me

Sorry for the look in your eyes
When I screw up yet again
And for the sadness in your voice
When I try to make amends

I wish I could tell you
How I really feel
What really goes on in my head as I wait for my cuts to heal

But I'm not good with words
No failure is...
I just wish/hope you would understand...

My life has gone from happiness and fun
To black rain clouds that always hide the sun
I don't know how long I'll stay strong...

I love you guys way to much to leave you
But a failure like me doesn't deserve you
Don't waste your money and love on me anymore
I don't deserve it...
I'll leave you alone permanently

I'm sitting here now with tears in my eyes
A failure like me doesn't get second tries
I'm trying to figure out how to say goodbyes
I'm sorry...

I've tried the knife but that didn't work
So I'll find another way to leave this earth
Don't worry because it won't be long now
Your failure will be gone

If I do decide to go through with this
Tell God that I'm sorry
I was no good for you I had to go through
I was late for the devil's party

I'm sorry I caused you pain
I'm sorry I wasn't "me"
But the only thing that I really wanted
Was the gift of being free [comments] => 2 [counter] => 156 [topic] => 13 [informant] => upomik [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )
The Failure

What do you do with a failure?
I'm sorry...
Why did you even create me?
I'm sorry...

Sorry that I'm not who you want me to be
I'm sorry I fail...
I'm sorry that I'm not me

Sorry for the look in your eyes
When I screw up yet again
And for the sadness in your voice
When I try to make amends

I wish I could tell you
How I really feel
What really goes on in my head as I wait for my cuts to heal

But I'm not good with words
No failure is...
I just wish/hope you would understand...

My life has gone from happiness and fun
To black rain clouds that always hide the sun
I don't know how long I'll stay strong...

I love you guys way to much to leave you
But a failure like me doesn't deserve you
Don't waste your money and love on me anymore
I don't deserve it...
I'll leave you alone permanently

I'm sitting here now with tears in my eyes
A failure like me doesn't get second tries
I'm trying to figure out how to say goodbyes
I'm sorry...

I've tried the knife but that didn't work
So I'll find another way to leave this earth
Don't worry because it won't be long now
Your failure will be gone

If I do decide to go through with this

I was no good for you I had to go through
I was late for the devil's party

I'm sorry I caused you pain
I'm sorry I wasn't "me"
But the only thing that I really wanted
Was the gift of being free
