My World, My Words

I Tried, I Failed

I just don’t know I if I can take it anymore
No matter how hard I try I cant get through that door
I think everything I have tried
I first started with the nice guy
But when that approach didn’t work
I then moved and acted like a jerk
Still no form of success
Not a stitch of progress
I tried being friends and getting real close
But the closer I got the less the hope
So then I played like I was real smart
But I had all the brains but no heart
I tried the old fashion face-to-face
And like old times I’m in the same place
I tried to play all the girls I see
But none of them looked twice at me
I tried putting my heart and soul on a piece of paper
But they just looked, laughed, and said see you later
I tried dates and giving them the time of day
But when night fell they had nothing to say
I tried holding hands walking in the mall
But when the shopping was done I had nothing at all
Try, and try, and try as I might
I never seem to get things right
Maybe what I think is real
Maybe I’m not relationship material
Please someone tell me what is there left to try
I don’t want to watch my teen years go by
With out having someone from the opposite sex
Someone to call my baby or even my ex
Is it me am I really that bad
Did I make so many girls mad
Am I really that ugly, that mean, that stupid, that fat
That weak, that heartless, that poor, is it really that
When I look into the mirror at what I’ve grown to be
5’10 185 pounds and trying to grow a goatee
I wonder if I am that ugly
Is my face that scary
I have this thing throbbing in my chest
But for 17 years, and 16 days alone it rest
Broken, tired, aching, sore
Waiting for someone to t call mi amore
Please tell me what to do id do to get out of this hell
Because every time I try, every time I fail
