Death's Doorstep

by Lisa   Jun 7, 2005


People constantly saying
you're smarter than this
but what if I'm not
what if this is it?
People telling me
you can be better
but what if I can't
what if this is as good as it gets?
People say to stick with my morals
that I can overcome anything
but what if I don't
what will happen to me then?
What if I can't be the person everyone wants me to be?
Is life worth living for?
Do I deserve the things I have?
My family, my friends.
No.
I don't.
Do I deserve all the crap in my life?
Every last bit of it.
Should I tell people how I feel?
Or let it go unspoken?
Does it really matter how I feel?
If I was gone tomorrow would anyone care?
Do I really matter?
No.
I don't.
