17 days left to be 17
April 10, 2013
Every day since I turned seventeen,
I have made mistake after mistake,
To me life has been too mean,
Now I just need a break,
I can not live this nightmare,
I can not take an everyday scare,
I have felt so damn alone,
There is no one to call on the phone,
The only voices I hear,
Come from the music played in my ear,
It has been a lonely journey,
But now I just wish to be free,
Seventeen years of tears I have had to bare,
This life has not been fair,
WHen will this end?
My soul to heaven when can I send?
