The World Sucks by Lucas Wolfe

The world sucks

Survival of the fittest

We thrive while others suffer

We drown others to stay afloat

Survival of the fittest

Selfishness flourishes within us

They drown others to stay afloat

They break you down to build themselves up

Selfishness flourishes within us

Materialistic objects are “needs”

They break you down to build themselves up

Why did society judge so ruthlessly?

Materialistic objects are “needs”

Because I don’t have name brands, am I less than?

Why are we so self-centered?

I AM by Lucas Wolfe

Lucas Daniel Wolfe, I am 16 years old and in 11th grade. I currently live in a group home known as Vista Del Mar. I have been to 3 different high schools before New Earth. My mental stability varies between suicidal to “I feel on top of the world.” Sometimes in a matter of minutes. I am at New Earth to get my high school diploma so I may continue on about my life. I still have an infinite amount of knowledge learn, and many demons to overcome. My main issues is having to put my best foot forward and apply myself to certain importances in my life. I have a hard time trusting, loving people for fear they will hurt and leave me just like everyone else. To keep myself from more pain I others away and build a metaphorical wall. I want to grow as a person, I want to get a diploma, have a job, buy a house and car and be successful throughout life. How I’m going to get there starts now, started yesterday, continues tomorrow. I will learn to trust and love. I will apply myself to get to a successful point. I will be the change I want to see in the world to make a difference. I will get stronger. I will have the things I want in life, I will succeed, I will find true happiness. I will do anything I want as long as I work towards my goal everyday and don’t stop.
