PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Please tell me what this world has ever done for me

But cause me pain, fail to set me free

Given me all the headaches

And twice as many heartbreaks

Told me not to spend the night at a Rave

But I might as well party till I hit the grave

I'm done tryin' to live this holy life

When all I'm dealt is agony and strife

Turned to a church that was more like a cult

Withdrew from my friends, it's all my fault

And now when I need them more than ever

Seems those relationships will be repaired never

God what I'd give to have them now

I try to apologize but I don't know how

You tell me, "Keep your chin up, be cheery"

After hearin' it so long I'm beginning to get weary

It's easily said through a hypocrite's eyes

Surely you know there's nothing more I despise

And it's easy for you to say

Cuz' you're the one who always got your way

But when you've seen the world as it truly is

Controlled by humanity, no longer His

You'll stand outside and wonder

Soaked by rain, sky of lightning and thunder

And surely it's a bitter pill to swallow

That my entire existence has been so hollow

And maybe this conclusion was reached in haste

But I feel that all my life has been a waste

To this world what it might be worth

If never did it have to witness my birth

Would it truly be a better place

If never did it have to look upon my face
