Issues

by shawn   Mar 2, 2007


Laying here thinking to myself
I know I have issues
I know I need some help
The future looks so bright
But the path is weary
It frightens me to think where I may end up
If I keep this course
I have motivational problems
I know what I want and I know how to get it
What I don’t know is what it takes
I have spent years at this stage
Barely getting life as it goes on
But I have come to the fork in the road
Education means much to me
But I don’t seem to want to work for it
If I could I would skip these four years
But then I rethink it and it pains me to think that
Thoughts of suicide run through my head
Even though I would never attempt them
They linger in the back of my mind
Useless just like I
