I pretend I dont care I let them sit and stare They can't just let it be They have to pretend they care about me They think they are the perfect friend But they will find out in the end... No one realy sees how I feel about it now How can I expain A lifetime of tears and pain To someone I just met To someone I barely know yet I just need a friend that won't run away Someone I know is here to stay Thats one of the things I cant seem to find And it makes me feel like I am loosing my mind Why cant I just be happy for once Just forget the bad times Or remember the good ones... Things are never what they seem You dont know how badly I want to scream I know I must hold it all inside But you wouldnt know, because I've lied Im hoping that it isnt real So I dont tell you how I feel Its all one big nightmare to me But it seems so real, I know it must be I do not really wish my life were perfect I just wish people would treat me with respect Instead of everyone ruining my life Making me want to reach for a knife But I dont, because I know running away Will not work, I just have to stay And face this world, standing strong Even if I dont belong... |

You are right, running away never solves anything, but keeping it inside also doesn't help, but through poetry you can express any and every emotion, without really admitting it...ain't that great! You have a talent, very nice poem, keep it up, and remember, here in passions are a bunch of ears always ready to listen Planning big can be a gamble...I have already rolled the dice! |

I can really feel the pain that you put into this piece. You're right, reaching for the knife won't solve a thing. People will come around, though, and you will only become stronger as you get older. Things aren't so bleak, my friend! If you need to talk, feel free to e-mail me.  "Men judge generally more by the eye than by the hand, for everyone can see and few can feel."-Machiavelli |

Nicely done! Reaching for the knife is weak, you have to be alive and stand your ground. Keep that head up and keep going on your way......you can do it.  I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |

Great poem. If you need to talk to someone who knows what you're going through(or at least thinks they do) drop me an email. I understand where you're comin' from and I have been there.Don't give up,charge forward and fight back,in a nice way. Jon "Your anger is a gift"-Rage Against The Machine |

Reaching for a knife isn't worth it. In the end, the strength you have through this situation is... I really hope things get better for you. Great poem. Thank you for the good read. Just remember to stay strong.  --Marie I never thought that you would ever be the one to let me down. I guess that just goes to show how wrong I always am. |

I thought it was very good, especially the ending. Reaching for the knife can be important, for it gives you a sense of how close it really is... but how heavy it is to lift. And it really isn't worth it. ~Allan If I had your eyes, I'd be blind. For I can only see out of my own. ~~Carly Van Dort |

What a wonderful post. Full of emotion and pain. Never end your life trying to fix a problem. You are only giving them what they want. Fight hard, stay strong. Good luck and we're always here to listen. |

It's nice to see that you know what you have to do. I'm proud of you. If you need anyone to talk to, just email me. it doesnt hurt to show your deepest feelings to someone on the net  "So long as men can breathe or eyes can see, |

I know sometimes you think that I don't know what it's like. No matter how many times I try to tell you, you just can't seem to get it through your head. I have tried many times to be here for you. You are strong and you will always carry on. You have been through alot of things in your life and I know that. We all have been through alot. And you can't describe a lifetime of pain but you can just be content with knowing that people understand. I do understand. But you have never given me the chance..... |
