PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

i admit that i don't always use my please's and thank you's

that when somebody sneezes i forget to say bless you

that i don't say enough of how i feel and too much of what's on my mind

that i'm way too sarcastic to be considered very caring or kind

that i like to be by myself to get lost somewhere deep in thought

that i have trouble admitting when i'm wrong and, oh, i'm wrong alot

that i come too often and too quick upon anger and too late to say i'm sorry

that i wish i was more honest and nicer to everybody in my family

that i could count my blessings and be grateful for everything i had

that i'd show off to my friends less and try harder to impress my mom and dad

or that i'd stand up for what i believe in and not feel dumb for doing it

and that i'd try not to remember the bad things but do my very best to forget

i admit that i don't always treat people the way i want them to treat me

that too many times i find myself tapping my fingers against something impatiently

that i don't pay enough attention to my teachers while i'm sitting in class

that sometimes i get the feeling that i'm walking barefoot through broken glass

that they are days i hate myself more than anybody else i can think of

and that there are too many mornings when i just can't get myself to get up

that i pretend to be happy for people when i'm really just jealous

that i wish i'd go to church more often and try to be more religous

that i'd think about what i'm going to say before i say anything at all

that i'd think less about hitting a home run and keep my eye on the ball

that i wouldn't be such a procrastinator, always saving things for later, and just get it over with

or that i'd tell you more often all of these little things that i never do admit
