The poem that puts all the feelings into words...

Wasted Time...

Author: ______

------------------------

The Time that I've wasted is my biggest regret, Spent in these places I will never forget. Just sitting and thinking about the things that I've done the crying, the laughing, the hurt, the fun.

Now it's just me and my hard driven guilt behind a wall of emptiness I allowed to be built. I'm trapped in my body, just wanting to run; back to my youth - with it's laughter and fun .

But the chase is over and there's no place to hide. Everything is gone, including my pride. With reality suddenly right in my face, I'm scared, alone and stuck in this place.

Now memories of my past flash through my head,  And the pain is obvious by the tears that I shed. "I ask myself " Why and where I went wrong? I guess I was weak when I should have been strong.

Living for the drugs and the wings I had grown, My feelings were lost, afraid to be shown. As I look at my past it's so easy to see - the fear that I had, afraid to be me.

It's time that I change and get on with my life - what my future holds I really don't know but the years that I've wasted are starting to show.

I just live for the day when I'll get a new start and the dreams I still hold deep within my heart. I hope I can make it, I at least have to try- Because I'm heading toward Death  - And I don't want to die..
