Array ( [sid] => 78919 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => The right way [time] => 2005-01-07 19:49:44 [hometext] => a poem about growing up and doing the wrong things...just not really caring...it makes me look a lot worse than i am though [bodytext] => As I look back and see
My life is passing by me
I'm standing still, watching it all go by
Maybe if I move, I can stop these tears that I cry

Now that I'm moving, I'm not sure where to go
I want to go the path of God, the right one I know
But satan is so seducing and I fall to his feet
I always follow him and live a life full of deceit

But is there any fun in the sinless life of Christ?
Without the darkness, its all too "nice"
No parties or drugs, how would I have fun?
I like my life without the sun

So I'm gonna stand still and let life pass me by
Because I like the pain I feel when I cry
I wont look forward, I'll live day by day
And later I'll find the path that leads the right way [comments] => 3 [counter] => 197 [topic] => 61 [informant] => pleasure_is_pain103 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 4 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => selfstruggles )

The right way

Good write. Keep thinking that way. I thought I recognised you on the path.
