the unknown realm of insanity

0 posted 2002-10-25 12:00 PM



This girl standing,
The one in the shadows crying silently to herself.
Isn’t sure whether life is worth it.
Pain,
Is the emotion that she’s been feeling.
She wants to leave,
and never come back.
But she’s forced to stay where she is.
That girl thinks,
The only thing she’s good at is failing and making people miserable.
She doesn’t see that all those people care about her,
For all she can see is deceit.
Hate is what she has known her whole life.
She sees herself alone,
For the rest of her life.
She sees no happiness in her future.
At night she cries wondering if anyone cared.
But the answer she forced herself to believe is NO!
She thought she was loved,
But then she thought about death.
She once was happy,
Just like the rest of you.
She too laughed,
And forgot about her problems.
But yet she turned into this person,
And it terrifies her.
What will happen to her?
It depends on if she’s suicidal…
That is the unknown!

Yeah thats what I'm wondering. If it is a cry for help... Then I have been in your predicament before. If you think you have nothing to live for your wrong just look at what you have written. Thats a whole lot to live for its just so good that you can't stop you gotta push all those negative feelings away. You know I felt that way but this has helped a lot.

This poem was magnificent just like the others.

Try to have a good day...

THE Delaney?  

How to address a legend such as this young lady...

I was rather impressed with your poem.  It starts out a bit slow, emotional, and factual discussion of the girl's state.  Then the big "NO!" comes out of nowhere and kicks the whole poem into motion... from that point on, I read it much more quickly... as if it was a threshold in the energy level of the poem.  I'm not sure, maybe it was just me, but I really like the effectiveness of that NO! you tossed into the mix.

Very nice writing, Delaney.  Great to see you back in our pages.

I liked the poem a lot. Reminded me a lot of someone I used to know in highschool.
Hope things get better for the "girl" in the poem.
