I wish I wasn't born

by Mack Bopape   Oct 2, 2007


If I knew things were gonna be like this
I would have told my Mama
Not to bring me to the world
And I think if she also knew
She wouldn't have

What is the use of living?
What is the use of living if you are struggling
What is the use of living if...,
If no one seem to be caring about you

And the one who cares about you is also struggling
And that person happens to be your Mama
Because nobody cares more about
Than your mother does
Unless otherwise

All I wish is not to have been born
I wish I wasn't born because life is hard
Life is hard and I can't seem to find the way out

I wish I wasn't born
Not that I want to die
I don't know why I don't want to die
Because life is hard on my side
I just wish I wasn't born and that's it

    When I read this poem, I thought maybe the words of it are refering to me. it touched my soul indeed Mack. This poem is for real, you have done a good job Mack! Like I said before, some of yuor poems are nearly the same with mine according to the way you express them. What a good poet you are Mack! Keep the wood burning.
