This poem was written during a hard part of my life, and may be depressing.

THE BUG

I see a bug on my arm

I reach up but then I stop

I hold the bug between my fingers

thinking that its life is in my hands

I decide whether or not it lives

I decide whether or not it dies

its life is in my hands

yet I cannot do it

I cannot bring myself to kill this little bug

I put the bug on the ground

I walk away with pride in myself

thinking how I saved a life

thinking how I made a difference

I turn around and it's dead

killed by the shoe of a pedestrian

walking along on his merry way.
