People say
Such perfect thingz
But no one knows
The sorrow it bringz
When I lay down
To go to sleep
I think of how
Much I've weeped
I begin to wonder
Why it is
I've had to live
My life like this
How could my life
Be so strange
The love I need
Is out of range
I think of what
People've taken away
And tell myself
"I'll get it back someday"
I see that day
Far in the distance
So far these people
Show no resistance
I can't trust them
I can't believe
So many times
I've been decieved
I wont give in
I wont let go
I'll hold on
To what I know
Some people tell me
"I wish I was you"
Most these people don't know
What I've been through
These people are
So very blind
Because of that
To them, I'm kind
Behind this kindness
Is so much pain
Painfully & Slowly
Im going insane
I have to say, this poem is really really good. It has a nice touch at the end, my only critique is run the first stanza through a spell check. You are using 'z' instead of 's' in some words...Its fine for online chatting, but poetry is much more classy. Anyways keep up the great work. This poem is brilliant!!
The curiosity of the human mind is what makes life interesting. But its also this that kills us all, curiosity leads to insanity for ignorance is bliss.
Because who can be sane when they understand life?
...Sorry I sometimes ramble on about things, but it has a good point.
