Do You Even Care?
Do you know how hard I work for your approval?
But I never get it.
I’m not exactly sure what’s wrong with me,
You never wonder, your always too busy yelling at me.
I try so hard, do u even see that?
All I want is for you to like me,
But you don’t, and I don’t know why.
I’ve tried for so long…
I QUIT!
All you ever do is yell and get mad at me.
Do you see what you have done to me?
I’ve cut, burned, and everything else imaginable to myself.
I’ve made a lot of promises not to hurt myself anymore, but I’m not sure it’s worth it.
Do you see how depressed I am?
I don’t wanna be here anymore…
I can’t take it I’m going insane.
All this anger, hatred, and depression I fell right now is all because of you, mom and dad.

think you missed a done in there, shoudn't it be and done everything else

possibly?


this was very emotional and well put on paper, ( or computer for that matter ).....the flow could be just a bit better, but other wise, great write...

Rude? Huh.
Well, as far as advice i'll just say anger can learn to dance as well.  Ever heard of a furious ballet of destruction? Well, anyway.

Alright, alright, this does feel really awful, and I'm sorry. As a survivor (how many r's are in that word is that spelled right?) Anyway, as a survivor of the teen angst years I must throw in my unsolicited advice. I've had friends with your EXACT problems with the physical harm, and you need to realize it's not the way to handle things and self-inflicting pain when the people around you are working so good at it all by themselves just lets them win. Don't let them win. My parents made me feel the same way sometimes- even after a really good report card they'd act like the one C in math was the end of the world and I didn't even try. It takes a while for parents and other people to get it, so try and be patient okay? I'm sorry for what you are going through.
