A Life Unlived

You got kicked off the football team

For getting caught on drugs.

Your baby sister hates you

Because you refuse to give her hugs.

You failed all of your classes

Because you slept your way through school.

You lost the girl you loved

Because you acted like a fool.

You never went to college,

So you picked up people's trash.

It wasn't much a career,

But it gave you extra cash. 

Your brother still looks up to you,

Which may not be so good.

He won't amount to much,

Although I think he could. 

You wasted your potential

And the ones you loved were hurt.

It's just a shame I have to tell you this

Through six feet of dirt.
