A Test

by bellATragedy   Nov 20, 2007


My mouth is my greatest enemy
And my pen the greatest lie
My thoughts seem to betray me
And I can't figure out why
I say things I know I shouldn't
I make statements others wouldn't
I lead life mean, bringing down the best
But honestly I feel that life is one big test
A test I can't seem to pass
With questions that have no answers
Lies that have no truth
And thoughts that destroy like cancer
It eats at my soul what's right and what's wrong
And it's killing me to have to choose when I've known all along
Yet I find it hard to pick one over the other
If there's such a thing as a retake I'd like another
When this test is over what will be left of me
But a shadow of a person that no one ever sees
When I answer the last question there's no need to worry
By then I'll be gone, passed on and buried
So lay me in the ground and judge me then
Grade my test whenever you can
When everyone passes by then they can see
How life ripped me and changed me and gave me a D
