Challenge Ended
Write a poem that begins with "Come with me" and "till the end", a challenge some of you may remember from last year.
Recently, I have been in a situation where the people around me have changed how they speak and write. I would like to revive a challenge that I created last year.

taking direction
come with me
he said
so i followed
as i always have
like when I was ten
and my cousin told me to smoke this
and when I was seventeen
and my girfriend said
you have to go
to college
and so
i smoke
i'm in debt
and now
i’m
walking
behind this man
down this dark alley
where i’ll probably die
and this is just how
i’ll alway be
till the
end

This is a person realizing they should change their behavior but also realizing they never will. There is something hopeless and fatalistic about someone resigning themselves to their fate like that.

@voiceinthewind do you think they're being dishonest?

I actaully think the opposite. The reason why we deceive ourselves is because the truth hurts. This is someone who is stating the way it is even though it reflects on them unfavorably.
