They said, get out of your head
You can't live a life full of regret
But for the choices I made
A debt needs to be paid
Or I'm as worthless as he always said.
*
See, that's the problem with living a lie
You pay for another ones crime
They don't care how you feel
Come on, you've got to be real
You're just wasting your valuable time
*
I'm doing better now, than before
I don't wish for death anymore (for him :))
I still kind of keep to myself
Keep my heart on a shelf
In a box with a lock on the door
*
I remember when life was a breeze
The days moved quickly, with ease
I am getting that back
There's just one thing I lack
The ability to sneeze and not pee
*
I wrote this limerick to show
No matter how your life goes
Through the good and the bad
You still need a good laugh
Ignoring your mental health - really blows
