"Tell me I can't do it, and I'll do it"


It was the money
It was the drugs
It was the alcohol
It was the bugs
It was my boyfriend
It was the fame
It was the party
It was the game
But me, I'm not to blame.
It was the excitement
It was the time
It was the moment
It was the fine
It was the bottles
It was the shame
It was the parents
It was the flame
But me, I'm not to blame.
It was my friends
It was the need
It was the words
It was their deeds
It was the car
It was the name
It was the street
I couldn’t be lame
So me, I’m not to blame


The author's comments:
This poem is not a representation of myself, but more of today's world. Many people feel the need to blame their problems on others and can't own up to their mistakes. Thats why I wrote this poem.
