I feel like crap
I’m not understood
That’s not the point
It about doing good

I ask your problems
And advice I offer
But then it gets changed
And benefits someone’s coffer

“Whose fault is it?”
“Well it came from Bryan”
What do you want from me people?
It’s not my fault she’s crying

You people make me sick
I’m just being nice!
YOU make YOUR mistakes
And I get put in the vice!

I’m asked for opinions
And opinions I never keep-
“But that’s not what I wanted to hear”
Then go (enjoy the company of) a sheep!

I’m goddamn sick of it
I’m done holding fast
If you have a problem
Take it out on me LAST

When I offer a compliment
“You can’t say that to just a friend”
I’m just being nice, so
Take your head out of your (rear end)

I’m leaving, let me go alone
Spare me your bull…
Don’t put this on me AGAIN
Because I can do without it!

My soul wreaks havoc
Oh the rest of my life
“But you’re Mr. Niceguy”
The words mean nothing to my strife

Take the stick out of your ear
And realize I’m just being kind
Anyone who didn’t share a brain
Would think me a good find

Don’t be a hypocrite
Don’t rub me with your games
Await your fate, don’t try to escape
When I engulf you in these flames

Flames of rage that cripple you
But I never feel
Flames that shred your mind
Leave only what is real

Remember this poem
With all of your heart
Because there are SOME PEOPLE
Who’ll rip you apart

Good job. But it will still most likely get removed.
Furthermore, I'll have to agree with Carly.

Nicely done here. I thought the anger was expressed quite well.



I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily
