Analysis of My Final Goodbye



I wrote this poem on a bad day... I just felt it worth posting whether I believe what it says or not, I'm sure we've all had one of those days where everyone just got on your nerves...

So I guess this is goodbye to all I know
It was fun while it lasted but I went with the flow
You all drove me crazy, out of my mind
I tried and I tried but all I could find

Was a bunch of users who couldn't care less
Give me this, give me that, I couldn't handle the stress
No one cared - It was all fake, all pretend
No one out there was really my friend

And if you saw it different well I did not
For with every last one of you it's what do I got
I've done everything to help all of you
And it's as if none of you had a clue

How stressed I was, I was dying inside
Losing every last spec of my honor, my pride
And if you asked me whats wrong and I said nothing
You just let it be and then asked me for something

Give you a smoke I just bought a pack
Give you some money or buy you a snack
The last time someone did something for me
I think I was a freaking baby

So just leave me alone let me do what I do
For I don't give a fuck about any of you
So just stop pretending I'm tired of lies
This is the end my final goodbye
