Poisoned Future

Another poem I wrote in less than five minutes. It's a wake up call for me and everyone who is still dreaming.

Poison
I wake up to realize that I was living a dream
I wasn't here for my family
I distanced myself and poisoned everything
I have no excuses but please don't say I'm not sorry
You don't know how I feel
Miserable, unwanted feeling like pants
I don't like this feeling but it all was my choice
I admit it was a bad choice
But what can I do I am still a stupid teen
I'm sorry that I alienated you
I'm sorry that I didn't say I love you
You mean the world to me but I took it for granted
Now I'm stuck here thinking what to do
Not knowing what will happen next
Being insecure of my decisions
I can't say that I know anything
This world is far too big for me to comprehend
I wont say that I want to die
I never took the easy way out
I'll live and make it up to you
Even if that means that I have to lose everything I have
The present is not the future
And if I don't move
I have no future.

Now, this is one of those poems where you have to truly read it to understand it. I think you did a splendid job, and should definitely keep writing on things like this. Great, great work. :-)
