Why Should I Bother? Poem by ESPN CHICK

Why Should I Bother?

Rating: 4.0


Sorry for all the trouble I've caused
I guess I will never be good enough
And every thing will always be my fault
In years to come I hope things get better
But deep in my heart and soul I know that they won't
I'm sorry for being a burden
Guess I always knew I should have died
And left all this pain behind
Should have known I'd be better off six feet under
I know every thing I do will never be good enough
So why should I bother
Why should I bother even trying
Should have given up like all the others
But I don't know if I want to live or die
In my mind I do want to die
But deep down I want to live
Either that or I'm scared of going to hell
Can't find the answers to my questions anymore
And everyone I thought I could count on
Says all the wrong things
But what else is new
I tried to trust someone but I can't even trust myself
And I'm tired of being here in this town
Hate it here thought everyone knew
Feels like no matter how hard I try not to cry
Theres always something there that makes me shed some tears

You don't know how close this is to my life. I'vehad exactly those same thoughts. Its strange how much alike people are inside. We all have the same issues and feelings and thoughts. Sometimes, I think everyone ought to just stop what they are doing and give the person next to them a hug. GW62
