Selfish world

by Heather M Craig   Dec 25, 2004


Look At Me
Helping You To Live...
I Get Nothing In Return
When I Give All I Got to Give.

I Dedicate Myself
To Every one of You
And When My Times Come,
You Abandon Your Only Truth.

You Either Claim You Are At Loss Of Words
Or The Ever So Popular Changing The Subject
Or Talk About How Much You Relate To Me
And You Just Make Me A Living Wreck!!!

This World Is So Amazingly Selfish,
The Minds And Hearts Are Oh So Avid.
The World Fatigues And Stresses Me
But I Can Never Change Their Stupid Shit.

Blinded By Their Own Lives To See That Of Anothers,
Drowning Themselves In A Sea Of Self- Pity
And I Give Them My Own Symphony And Prayers
But You Simply Can’t Do Nothing For Me.

But I Will Still Never Give Up
Or Quit Helping One In Need Out With Life...
I Will Continue To Be Strong For You And Fake My Smile
When Inside I Do Nothing But Cry.

~~Heather M Craig~~
not my best but was just feeling it this smorning.

    Awesome poem! I can really REALLY relate to this one. Anywho, you really have a gift for writing, besides the cussing, but that's prolly just me. I can really understand where you're coming from though! Keep up the writing! Peace
