my life was once great
things were easy for me and going good
i had a lot to live for
i once had a lot of friends
i once was a great athlete
i once was an A student
but now things have changed
they have changed and are out of control
they have all left me
my grades are gone
as hard as i try its not the same
my sports hit quicksand
they slowed to a stop until they were suffocated
they were un recoverable
what do i have to live for now?
oh how the once great have fallen
i cant stop these thoughts that run through my mind
thoughts of suicide are getting to me
soo much was expected of me
and i let them down
its too far to recover now its over
now nobody can make a difference
looking back at my life there was so much i wanted to change
so much i wanted to say, but never was able to
now the pain is gone for good
now i am at rest with things left unsaid

I would like to translate this poem
very touching and deep poem, but you do have something to live for and you have so many more years to become something, im sorry you feel this way tho, but getting good grades and playing sports arent everything, i hope maybe one day you find happiness once again
