Wonderful, Horrible, Place

by Maegan   Feb 14, 2006


Whats so wrong with being happy?
Or the continuation of joy?

Why do people try to hurt others,
or their self-esteems destroy?

I dont understand the concept of delighting in your enemies pain,

Why do we do such things, for its dignity we lose, not gain.

And why do we say "I Love You,"
If thats not really what we mean?

The truth is we love the idea of being in love with another human being.

Another thing I cant quite grasp,
Is why we care what others think.

I can tell you right now, the last thing I want is a shrink.

So why cant we all work together, and have hope for the human race?

Because that would defy the truth,
of this wonderful, horrible, place.

(I would really appreciate comments so I know whether or not to keep writing. It might sound cheesy, but I am a beginner and need constructive critisism. Thanks.)
