Suffered
             Endured
                             Worked hard Jumped through hoops
                        Ran around in loops
With sweat on my brow
           Needing to get things done
Not knowing how
          Sometimes wanting to run
I pushed ahead
                I wanted to cry in bed
But my hands bleed red instead
             Hard work determination
Refusing termination
             Holding my head up high
Happy I didn't die
                        As I wipe my eye
Happy its not a lie
                                    Relief
               Disbelief
Pain almost at an end
         Thank god for a good friend
Keeping me sane
                 Keeping my brain tame
I have knocked on doors
                              I have rang bells
Well no more
                    That's enough hell
I will stand tall
        Not backed up against a wall
Proved them all wrong
              Showed them I am strong
I will do it all
                          I refuse to fall
I have climbed up out of the hole they put me in
                          They
                   will
           not
  win
Hard work pays off
Sometimes you want to give up
But with blood sweat and tears
You can accomplish anything
Ice
Ice forming
Wind blowing
Wolfs howling
Is spring coming?
I can't wait for ice melting
Rednecks grilling
Kids yelling
There's no telling
When spring is coming
Pain clawing at my brain trying to make me insane I try to refrain the constant mind drain and try to contain the animal within trying to break free and destroy me all my anguish is in vein but I try to remain selfless not to be confused with helpless
Constantly tired emotionally drained while my pain is clawing at my brain
I look around and all I see
is stupid people all around me

what happened to common sense?
When I was growing up we didn't need warning labels on everything we weren't that stupid

what happened to work ethics?
When I was a kid we had to work hard if we wanted something now people expect handouts

what happened to being kind to your neighbors?
Growing up everyone in our neighborhood were every race and we were "family"

what happened to respect for your elders?
I was always taught to be kind and respectful of my elders and help them out whenever possible

What happened to morals?
My parents instilled honesty, respect , don't steal, don't cheat, don't help someone else cheat, and treat others the way you want to be treated, in me at a young age I couldn't break them if I wanted to because they are hardwired into my brain.

What happened to telling the truth?
All I ever hear anymore is lies

What happened to society?
We used to play outside, shovel snow for our neighborhood, we didn't use technology, we went on actual dates , holding hands and talking was the best way to show you cared , now people have online relationships never meeting eachother and sending ***** pictures. People text when sitting next to eachother. No-one actually talk to eachother. People now are so stupid that they need warning labels on everything, no-one has god in their hearts.

I was taught that there is good in everyone but when I look around all I see is morons that only care about themselves and will lie cheat and use anyone to get what they want.
Sorry started off as a poem but turned into a rant
I can't wait. ...to be sane
I can't wait. ...to end this pain
I can't wait. .....till you are free
I can't wait. ....till you're home with me
Where is the work ethic?
Wheres the workers that are energetic?
Why is the world lazy?
Its all hazzy
Wheres the hard workers?
Now there's only hookers
They just want free money
That's not how the world works honey
They say ignorance
Is bliss
But there is a difference
Between arrogance
And ignorance
Its a fine
Thin Line
Ignorance is not knowing
Arrogance is not caring
These two go hand in hand
Anyone that is arrogant
Is usually also ignorant
Ignorance is bliss?
