be you because no one can do you better than you.


Today the sun is shinig,but my skies are gray.Cold rain is pouring over me,
where i lay.
The birds are chirping in a way,
like their really calling my name.
My heart is soaked,soaked in despair.
Eveyoneis looking at me,
as though they care.
They stare,
i stare.
While in my head i'm screaming,
"LIFE ISN'T FAIR!"
I turn my back toward them.
and close my eyelids because i know it's my time,
to die.
I leaned over the edge,
and let the darkness swallow my soul,
while the rest of my body fell and went cold.
Today was my day..............
to go.

What inspired me to write this piece was a dream of a young child knowing it was her time to go but,she felt that her love ones didn't care about her so she died before her time thinkin it was her time.It's confusing but when i woke up i didn't i just wrote.

Interesting poem. A bit glum, but that's quite all right. Some of the best poems are. The last few lines are definitely very good.

You might want to proofread a bit. But besides that, this is a good piece of work!
