i want to die.
It's cliche...
It's even dull.
But i do.

i am sorry, world,
For the grief i've brought.
i am sorry, too,
For the pain i've wrought.

i so desperately want to die.
But i am too weak
To kill myself...
So i am just waiting

For that one random,
Lucky chance roll
of the dice...
In the game of life.

Please help me, world,
Help me to die.

i ask the drivers to be wreckless...
And the builders to be careless...
i ask those with guns to play with them.

And...
i take risks.

Risks like stepping out
Onto the road
Without looking...

i do this because i am a failure.

i have failed at life. i'm sorry.
i have failed at being...
A good son... i'm sorry.
A good lover... i'm sorry.
A good leader... i'm sorry.
A good person. i'm sorry.

i have failed at life... i'm sorry.

i have even failed at suicide.

So i wait...
For someone to help me...
With my incidental death. [comments] => 2 [counter] => 763 [topic] => 50 [informant] => TheSpiritx [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => ApologyPoetry )

Look, I hate to break it to you, but you are not a faliure.
A faliure doesn't write poems like this, a faliure won't know their mistakes, and a faliure won't care even if thy did know them.

Please look after yourself.

If you need to talk, I'm just a PM away.

I agree. Failures would never know
their own mistakes or write poetry or
stories. Although this is a good write.
There's great expression and detail
in here.

If you ever want to talk you can just
send me a private message and
ask for my e-mail. *hugs*
