Why Try.

Find a peaceful place for you to rest.
You couldn't make it, you failed the test.
I won't lie, if you don't cry.
I tried so hard, it didn't show.
Under our favorite tree, the leaves look below.
They fall this autumn just for you.
They all wither, they all expire, and they all fall and ignite on fire.
"Liar!", they're mouths ember with wrath.
Roots begin to twist and turn.
Blood and pain from the blaze that burns.
Engulf your body and your soul; Take your mind and all you stole.
Pull you down into the crust, devastate your broken state, here's your fate.
It's always the end.
No matter what accomplishments, what love, what soul guided
Misguided waste of time, tedious scheme you sketch to finish with your plan.
It's always the end that comes first and last. Once you?re born it's already over.
Why try when you will just die, and leave it all.
Why gather when you will just "give up the ghost" for say, why do anything why not live one day, and die the same.
Why not shift the blame and f**k the fame.
It's never you, and it's never me so who is it?

I really liked this poem and imagery inside it. :D

I liked this part as well! Great job! :]
