I dont have the emotions to cry,
But yet im suppose to have the energy to care.
You want me around for all eternity,
But sometimes your not even there.
I shouldnt let things get to me,
But i have to hug you when you have a bad day.
You say you love me and we're equal,
Then why are there times when i dont have a say?
Of course what your going through is worse,
Im expected to hold in my cries.
You preach upon me to tell the truth,
But what about when all you tell is lies?
Your battles are a lot tougher than mine,
Mine arent even worth the time to speak of.
Im suppose to love and accept myself,
But should i still when you show me the reasons why i shouldnt be loved?
Everything i laugh at is stupid,
When i cry im over-reacting or too sensative.
You want freedom and independance,
But there are times you wont allow me the emotions to live.
Im expected to understand your problems,
But mine are nonsense and nothing at all.
I have to respect your difficulties,
But if im down im not expected to fall.

Lost in a dazed world,
Nothing makes sense at all.
Walk wearly through school,
Bump into people in the halls.
All i can see is the things i do wrong,
Upon why im constantly sad.
Repeating the fight in my head where you did nothing wrong,
All the times I was told i had no reason to be mad.
Day in and day out,
In my dream world or awake.
My mind flows with thoughts,
With all the problems that i make.

Well I haven't been on here for awhile but just like before your poem is awsome.You have a very special talent and i wish I could write up to your standards.But anyway I can't wait to read more of your poems and who knows maybe I'll be inspired to write another poem myself.

Torn are her limbs
By quiet hands that
Tug life(color) out of her.
Gnawing edges round
Into a broken(satisfying)
