"In The End" a song by Linkin Park. The poem was insiperd by those thoughts. Enjoy
"IN THE END"


No matter what we do
In life we will
always fail
Nobody gives a crap
about anyone but
themselves
It's every man from
himself, in our
peaceful world
When we say that
selfishness is a sin
we contradict ourselves
How can we survive
without our needs
met before others
Where can you turn?
Who can you trust?
the world breaks out
into anarchy
filled with nihlists
who strive for destruction
battling with the anarchists
trying to prove that anarchists
are not with nothingness
We are all rats stuck
within a box filled
with a complicated labrynith
Who can I turn to?
my love? NO
my friend? NO
myself? NO
With no one to turn to
all that was once
beautiful dies
rainforests die
people vanish
animals on the verge of
extinction eat the
human carcass
the bleak savage land
that we all once called
home
Because when the comes again
it never matters who you are
because you're nothing
nothing you have done
will save you
"I tried so hard
and got so far
but  in the end
it doesnt even  matter
I had to fall
and to lose it all
but in the end
it doesnt even matter"

Regina

If you only understood my pain then maybe you could learn to be my friend. Be there. My crying shoulder. The smiles. And the caring i need to survive.

First of all, that's a good song.  
Secondly, this is a good poem.  Although I don't agree with the message, I think it's very well written.  You did a nice job portraying your feelings, and that always makes good poetry.  Well done.

This is some powerful reading here, lady.  
Linkin Park (just thought that should be thrown in) and you've slotted parts of the song in with it nicely.

Very well done, Regi. Once again, you have out done yourself.

That's so weird, I was just thinking about that song.  I just copied it from my boyfriend and that's like all I've listened to since Saturday night.  Great poem!

Linkin Park is ok...but i did like this poem Regi. You truly have ivolved into a true poet. Amazing job.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I admire it daily
