Default A poem...

Life sucks.
People suck.
Because...

You'll always find a hair in your food,
A black speck in your water.
Half a worm in your apple,
And you'll notice a spider on your ceiling,
At three thirty in the morning,
When a strange noise wakes you up,
Four hours before your alarm will go off,
While you were in a deep sleep...

People will always flip you off,
Even though they were in the wrong.

Enemies hate you.
Strangers hate you.
And at least every one of your friends has hated you.

There will always be someone better than you...
Slimmer than you,
Better looking than you,
Nicer and funnier than you,
And they will have a better ass, all at the same time.

It will rain at least once, on your birthday.
You will stub your toe at least once a month,
Embarrass yourself about twice a week,
And will step in dog ****...about 50 more times before you die.

Your heart will be smashed.
You'll pick up the pieces,
Tape it back together,
And try to live your life like nothing happened...
You'll turn the corner...
And someone will yet again break your heart.
This time you won't want to pick up the pieces.
But you will.

You will be called names,
Stabbed in the back,
And talked about-
By strangers retelling a funny story
about someone they saw step in dog ****.

And by your closest friends.

People you love will die.
You will cry alone in a public place,
And no one will ask you what is wrong.


But honestly?
Life sucks.
People suck.
The world sucks...


Thank **** for straws.

Awwwwwwww Barra............... life doesn't always suck honey. Sometimes, it has a funny way of working itself out and getting you where you want to be. And when that happens, life stops sucking.

However, it very often does suck, so I'll give you that one!

Yep, guess I am. Just had a couple of rubbishy days for various reasons. And my cider must be broke as it doesn't seem to be helping!

And to top it all off I have toothache too!

See? You're feeling better already!

Get some bloody brandy or whiskey soaked onto a piece of cotton wool (bog roll'll work if you ain't got any) and I guarantee, your tooth'll start to be numb within ten mins!

Have another (((((((((((((hug))))))))) )))) whilst you wait for it to kick in though gorgeous!! x
