All for nothing

All for nothing

A Poem by Mr. Lopez

All was for nothing
The fan fair,the tears
Did you expect something
From all of the years

The scrapes and the bruises
We're part of the fall
I gave to you too much
You took from me all

All was for nothing
God knows I tried
I fed to you truths
While you only lied

I've come from so far
But I got nowhere
I wished for so little
But you didn't care

My all was for nothing
My all was for you
I still have my dignity
How about you"

Too many to count
The numbers too high
The more that I give
The less that you try

All was for nothing
And ain't that a shame
At least I can say
That I'm not to blame

I understand this place your coming from, i have been there so often...I would like to say that
I does not matter how people treat us in this life, what does matter is how we treat others! All people we connect with here are just for a season, when that season ends a new one begins.. your writing is good but when i read your poems one thing comes to mind....Why do you play it so safe?
