Did You Know? Poem by Laura Buchanan

Did you know?
That I’m just like everyone else
That my life was harder than yours
That the world I see is nothing more then a faint fantasy

Did you know?
I want everything you get
I want to be seen for what I am not what I do
I want to have friends I can count on like you do

Did you know?
You get everything without trying
You live in the world I wish for
You are the person who made me like this

Did you know?
The world is a very cruel place
The world will never give you what you want
The world is where you work for life

Did you know?
I want to leave this world for good
I wish I could go though one day and feel like I belonged
I could if it wasn’t for you
Now you know
How I feel
How this world works
How you life will be

Now that I’m gone
