I'm not even going to tell you
How much I've cried in the last two years
How much I've hated myself
How much I've died
Because of you.

If this never got out of hand
If you would have done your job
If you would have been there for me
I wouldn't be in this mess.

I would be happy
I would have a social life
I would have free time

But NO.

You HAD to eat food
You HAD to practice
You HAD to use the computer
You HAD to read your book
And I was left alone
In the dark
With no one to guide me.

Thanks you guys. I actually wrote this poem towards myself, if that makes sense. I made a ton of mistakes last year and I was really upset. Thanks for taking your time to read it:3

I letterly stopped for a minute. I felt so sad for you but also related to this so well. I know how< it feels like to be left down and forgetten. Your poem said it all in such few words. I liked it a lot keep writing and thank you for sharing this ^_^
