Never Have I Ever


Never, Never, Never, Never, Never, Never Have I Ever, Never have I ever skipped a day of school, Never have I ever stolen a car, Never have I ever gotten drunk, Never have I ever gotten high, Never have I ever stepped out of line, Never have I ever gone all the way, Never have I ever kissed a girl, Never have I ever had a girlfriend, Never have I ever been on a date, Never have I ever asked a girl out, Never Have I ever been to a party, Never have I ever been invited, Never have I ever been popular, Never have I ever had a best friend, Never have I ever had a friend, Never have I ever known someone who understands me, Never have I ever met a trustworthy person, Never have I ever asked for help, Never have I ever found someone who can help me, Never have I ever had anybody listen to my cries for help, Never have I ever had more than one girl tell me that I was sweet, That she was flattered, That she was not ready to make the commitment, That things were moving too fast, That I was a joke, She said we could still be friends, She said she did not love me, She said it was a bad time for her, She said there was someone else, She said I made her sick, I cried over her, She broke my heart, I flung her words back in her face, She turned her back on me, I just stood there and took it, Never have I ever been mad at her, Never have I ever wished for her death, Never have I ever considered killing myself, Never have I ever attempted killing myself, Never have I ever succeeded in killing myself, Never will I ever give up on the future, Never will I ever give up on myself, Never will I ever forget that there are those who are less fortunate than me, Never will I ever forget my blessings, Always will I thank God for giving me a second chance, Always, Always, Always, Always, Always, Always Will I Be Thankful.
