One of my favorites would have to be "Never let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game." My favorite one right now would have too be "No matter how SERIOUS life gets, you still gotta have that one person you can be completely stupid"


I am known as

a goody-goody.

A girl that does everything she is told.

Someone that always has a smile on her face.

 

Most people don't relize,

that I am not any of those things.

 

I am not a good kid.

In any way.

the smile that is on my face,

is not real.

Everyday, it is pretend.

 

I am going through so much,

and so few know.

People may not believe me,

but I am depressed.

Everyday, all day.

 

It gets worse everyday.

Only a very few know what I am going through.

They try to help,

but I just snap at them.

 

The people that know

I am hurt,

try to help,

but then,

I just end up,

hurting them in the end.

 

It's always my fault.

Everyone knows it,

they just won't admit it.

 

I have made stupid descisions

because of the depression.

I have made mistakes that will forever haunt me.

I did things that I

am not proud of.

But from these mistakes

and descisions,

I hope I learned.

 

I know,

with this,

only a few can connect.

But for those individuals,

I hope they know,

that they are not alone

in this cold cruel world.

It may not seem like it,

but there is someone,
that knows what

you are going through.

I hope that people will understand that they are not alone in this world. If they are depressed, it can help to have a freind or someone to help you through it.
