It pains me to see you live
But I just can't watch you die
You're throwing away everything
And all I can do is cry

One of these days you'll kill yourself
With all the drugs and booze
Thinking yourself the best there is
Yet you're just another fool

Hmm, a little hard for me to get later on- but I can see the deep thoughts and message behind this poem.

You are talking about how it hurts to watch another, the other just throwing there life away in the way they live and things they do while they say, "I know what's best for me, I'm the one in charge of my life and I can do what I want with it."

Yet indeed they are just like another fool, without preperation of the things to come in this life- I give it a Four out of Five, though my reasons are for the little things that I am really picky about- mostly the extra 'h' in 'watch' and the word 'boozes'- since the plural word for 'booze' is indeed 'booze'.

Very nice and keep it up,
Jack Skater

Thank you. I never knew that plural booze didn't have an "s".

Heheh, it's something you learn from playing a certain game called Kingdom Of Loathing as well as creating a original character with a beer mug for a head. But yes, it is booze- try saying booze and then boozes- then ask which sounds more natural- that usually is the one you want.

Most words are easy to figure out if you break them down into sections. Like Amuse- muse means to think- when 'A' is added to it the word then becomes an 'opposite' in a sense- meaning that 'Amuse' means 'To not think or causing one to not think.' So if you tell someone they are 'Amusing'- it's actually a deep insult. Heheh.
