GETTING BURNED

Raven333

Not knowing where to go,

Not knowing which way to turn.

No matter which road you choose,

It seems like you are always

Getting Burned.

No one really cares,

No one lends a hand

They will push you,

As your falling

And you are supposed to understand.

Am sorry,

Means absolutely nothing

Because it's used way to much.

When you hear it over and over,

It gets old

It lost that special touch.

Love is taken for granted,

Commitment seems to be a sin

These are some of the reasons,

Why I no longer let people in.

People want you to listen,

To them

But not to you,

So selfish and overbearing

Behind your back,

They call you a fool.

The truth is no longer spoken,

Lies have over run.

I sit and think to myself,

I know..

I can't be the only one.
