read it or don't, it's nothing important. just a free verse poem. makes for a good rant.
It’s funny how hard I’ve worked
To keep my faith in our race
And every time I think I’ve made it
Someone does something stupid again
So I honestly don’t know
What I should feel
What I should do
Why are people like this?
Why does nobody seem to care
How others will feel
And what might happen
Until it’s too late, far too late?
I’m sick of it, really
Absolutely done
I don’t even know why I wrote this
Maybe just my little way
Of getting the anger out of my system
But it doesn’t really matter
After all, once I’m feeling better
Someone’s just going to do it again
And I’ll lose faith again
Why even bother trying
Nobody cares whether I care
There’s things I shouldn’t think
And things I do think
And I really don’t care anymore
I don’t care about much of anything right now
Well I do
But I don’t care that I care
I just don’t know how to cope with this
Do I try to hold my faith
And let myself be disappointed
Again and again and again
Or do I just give up
Well giving up isn’t an option
So I guess I get up
And try to salvage that bit of faith
Blown to smithereens again
And put together what I can
Fixing it as best I can
Maybe I’ll get lucky this time
Ha!
I doubt it
I guess I just need to accept
That this is how we are
We’re a selfish, stupid race
And there isn’t much else to say
I guess I’d better just accept and deal with it
So that’s all
I’ve only got one choice
So here we go again
