My Life Poem by christopher mcdonald

my life is like a dream
thats followed by a shadow
and its supposed to guide me
and keep me safe
never leading me wrong
always steering me straight
but
what if
it goes on and on
for to long
and i hit a wall
and fall
i've already lost my parents yo
who else am i gonna call
no one to grow up with
to talk to
or count on with
what do i do
i feel as if i 've been stepped on by a shoe
with my whole life coming unglued
i have to act fast
choose the right path
it is what i should do
i'm to confused
to choose
do i follow the shadow
or do i follow you
i can barely decide
sometimes the pressure makes me feel like
i could die
and i wana reach up high
touch the sky
and ask god
why
i
if i pick the right one
i live a great life
choose the wrong one
my whole life goes down the drain
no place for a job
or even
a place to stay
to get out of the rain
and i lie alone
awake at night
in pain
with a look of shame
cause my whole life is lame
what path do i choose
im still confused
do i follow this shadow
or do i follow you
