Life Sucks

Life Sucks

A Poem by Mark Daniels

Shane Koyczan
keeps me sane
gonna put a bullet in my brain
because life sucks
we're all just husks
of who we used to be.

I used to be good, smart,
and in my chest, a massive heart.
but look where it got me,
heart got shattered, not as smart as i should be.
because life just sucks,
tempting lady luck,
with s**t you don't own.

As we get older,
grow bolder.
Time advances,
we get too many chances,
to change the style of our life's dances.
cause what sucks? life
what happens every day? strife
it's too late to change it.

Do you think if our past selves,
back when we believed in santa & elves,
would look at us today,
what would they say?

Did you live up to your childhood dreams?
or did you end up saying "it looks too hard, it seems,
I let myself down, cause im on all the teams
I opposed as a kid,
took the lowest bid,
because it was easy and cheap,
but now im in too deep.

Grades dropping,
floors i'll end up mopping,
because i chased our dreams,
got caught in the moon beams.
because life sucks and if you wanna make the big bucks,
you have to give up.

Write a letter to your past saying "sup?
I let you down,
I feel like a clown,
but life sucks,
even the best of us get fucked,
over.
it don't matter if you got a 4-leaf clover."

In the end,
i can say this my friend,
we are all just hypocrites.
we talk s**t,
but never back it up,
we think its always time for our closeup.
we are contradicting by nature,
but when we need a prayer,
we remember this for a moment,
when people die on the homefront
to protect us,
so stop with this fuss
because life sucks,
s**t happens,
then your die.
its what you make of it,
when you're in a world of s**t,
we all are going to die,
no escaping it,
tough guy.
