Seems Like

by Amanda   Sep 1, 2009


I'm a good person--so I'd like to think
I follow the golden rule: treat people the way you would like to be treated
I give to those in need when I can
My arms and ears are always open
So why isn't anything "good" happening to me?
Seems like the one's that hurt others:break the law:and are plain selfish have it all?
Maybe it's the selfish thinking on my part...
I have a degree and can't seem to find a job
I've tried blaming it on the "economy" for an ego boost
My self courage walls can't hold on for too long,
eventually they fall down
Hmm I don't know
Maybe it's me
I'd like to think it's God
Maybe I didn't get the jobs I went to,
because He believes I deserve better?
I can feel my self courage walls building again--as I said that
Seems like bad things happen to good people
for nothing worth having comes easy
My patience have passed the pop quizzes
and I'm soon to fail...
Maybe soon I'll get employed
Love my job
and get a raise?--so I'd like to think
