I don’t know how to handle this at all, if only i could be normal and not so much of a burden, like all of those drunk drivers i see, and people who get to many divorces, or sell bad things on the markets of the world. Just wish i could be like all of them and not such a burden anymore.
Perhaps i could strike it rich, then i wouldn’t be such a burden anymore because the rich aren’t a burden at all on anyone because it’s okay what they do.
Yes they are. These CEO’s make millions of dollars driving companies into bankruptcy. In the economic crisis of 2008 they knew their policies would destroy the economy, and they kept right on doing what they were doing. These CEO’s say their exhorbitant salaries are just what you have to pay to draw talent. What’s so talented about driving the economy into ruin? You know what I would call talent? I would call talent a bank forseeing the ruin these banks policies would cause, and working on improving their cash position so that when all these other banks are demanding government money to cover their ruinous policies, that bank could buy up all these toxic assetts at depressed prices, and then sell them at a nice profit. Everybody wins.
I wrote this poem when I felt like a burden. I still do sometimes but not to this extent.
I know
I’m nothing but a burden
A scourge on society
Your words
Sound so pretty
So neatly tied up.
But I know words
I understand
The meaning beneath.
You try to make me feel
A false hope
So that when I fall
It only hurts
That much more.
This thing
I’m going through
I know
You hope it ends
With my end.
Then you can all
Breathe a sigh
Because I’ll be
6 feet under
And you’ll finally
Be at peace.
Being in a bad position healthwise doesn’t mean you are a burden.
If you have schizophrenia and are thus unable to care for yourself,
it means you have to rely on disability benefits,
and the support of the government or other people or both,
but that doesn’t make you a burden.
The most important thing is to maintain your will to live,
and ideas like being a burden don’t help. To the contrary I believe they are harmful
in the difficult task of preserving the will to live.
I’m worried I’m a burden too. Don’t want to be though. Hope I will get well soon, then I don’t be a burden anymore. All I want is a solution to my problem.
