Array ( [sid] => 47633 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => A Reflection On Myself [time] => 2004-05-15 12:41:46 [hometext] => [bodytext] => I don’t know where or how to start.
But that’s nothing new.
I never know anything,
And I’m always wrong.

Why am I such a ***** up?
I can’t do anything right,
Ever.
It doesn’t matter how hard I try.

Nothing I do is ever good enough,
For anyone.
I try so hard,
But my efforts constantly prove to be futile.

I am a chronic failure.
I fail in all that I do,
And I fail others-
Daily.

Why do I bother to try to keep fake peace?
It never works.
I try to do what I’m supposed to,
But I always screw up.

No one seems to have any problem,
Pointing out all my faults.
They tear me down and rip me apart,
Until there’s nothing left.

Thoughts of suicide are becoming more and more frequent,
Yet there’s another side that refutes them.
I look only to my future for condolence.
I can’t wait to get out of this hell hole.

Most days I can’t take all this *****,
And I fall apart, piece by piece.
I do possess a slim glimmer of hope,
But is it worth it?

Strong words...definitely a powerful poem.

Of course that hope is worth it, what else can it be? I'm sorry you are feeling this way, it seems a lot of people are lately...shame too.

Hope can be our comfort, use it.
