You beat my soul & shot me down
Made me feel I wasn't good enough
I still hurt to this day

the pain is still tough
Should I take my life?
And resist the pain I endear
What do I do!?

help me my dear

I wrote this when I was thinking back on the time when smoeone, who I believed to be my friend, turned around and threw something I love and care about deeply in my face. They did this repeatedly to the point I wanted to curl up and disappear.

yeah, same here... every time I tell them how i feel right to THEIR faces, they get mad and all that... so all I can do is write about it.  so i get what you mean by this is the only way you can vent.
this was so well done.  you're a great writer.  I'm sorry that this person did this to you, I understand how you feel.

Thank you. I was constantly harrassed by this person and felt so depressed. I vent through writing, the words just seem to flow. I had a friend ask me how I can write so easily. :)
