Andrew Olson Poems

my life was once great
things were easy for me and going good
i had a lot to live for
i once had a lot of friends
...

some days i just wish that i could run and hide
no matter where i go it seems like the only way out is suicide
my life doesn't seem worth all of this pain and suffering
i don't want to be here anymore, nobody can help me,
...

they expected the best from me
they expected me to succeed
they expected me to win
they said they wanted what was best for me
...

it eats my insides, especially my heart
for i have no need for it when there is no one apart of me
destroy my lungs for i have no need for air
for im tired of living in my life of despair
...

Running, running to catch up,
running as hard as i can
But I’m never fast enough,
Always left behind,
...

Running, all the time I'm running.
I never stop to think what I'm running from or where I'm running to,
I just run, its what i do.
...

It' late at night, I cant sleep
So many thoughts run through my mind
The dreadful silence makes me shiver
The darkness also sends a quiver
...

my life was like this one marathon i ran

the beginning was smooth and easy
...

life is fragile like a baby bird
hold it too tight and it will be squeezed to death
and lost forever
hold it too loose and it will fly away
...

my feet hit the pavement,
but i dont feel it,
i hear the tears,
but i dont feel them fall,
...
