Once the time comes,
For me to say my last prayer.
When my suffering stops,
And when I no longer care.
I hope in my life,
I have made someone proud.
And I hope that God sends me,
Up to those heavenly clouds.
I hope I lived well,
And did the best I could do.
I hope someone loved me,
Now that my time is through.
I hope I was successful,
And more understood before I died.
I hope someone mourns my death,
And I hope people know I tried.
I hope I had fun,
And made it fun for others too,
I hope I changed someone's life,
And I hope my mistakes were few.
I hope I am a Dad,
And I hope that my kid loves me,
And I hope they never know,
The pain I've had to see.
I hope I was myself,
And had a life long friend.
Once I accomplish all these things,
Then my life will be ready to end.

Could I please get some more opinions on this poem? I was also curious if anyone knows where I could find information about publishing my poems, or entering them in a contest.

"That's Rock Bottom
When this life makes you mad enough to kill...
That's Rock Bottom
When you want something bad enough you'll steal...
That's Rock Bottom
When you feel you have had it up to here
Cause you mad enough to scream but you sad enough to tear"
