I don't want to. This paper in front of me glares me down, daring me to try, setting me up to fail. I can't do it. The stress I have just living through the day is enough to make me lose my mind. I can't fill out this paper too. I know I should, I know my grade depends on it, but I simply can't. I don't care-- and I will tell you why. I can't take a breath without wanting to die. I beg, I plead, I scream, I cry all in vain hope that I'll be okay even though I know that by the end of the day I'll be broken, bruised, beaten bloody, poison leaking out, thick like honey that trickles down my torn up face-- a symbol of my fall from grace. I stumble around, crying out as I search all about trying to find some scrap of hope that could be what I need to help me cope with my pain, my hate, my fear while I destroy all I hold dear. So watch me suffer, watch me pay, watch me try to ignore it and be okay. You don't get it, that's alright-- I've expected to be alone on this when I fight. I only ask that you understand why I don't care because after the day I have nothing to spare. All I can do is curl up and cry and wonder why life doesn't allow me to die. So I'm sorry that I don't give a d*** when I fail your f****** exam. |

wow very strong felt, but also can relate in a way when I was once in highschol, hope things get better and know that if you can write it out, you can surely move on Kate |

Powerful piece. I have lived in this darkness a few times in my life. I know it doesn't help right now but it does get better if you can survive through it. |

La.....La, Humm...super mechanics and presentation. You're the opposite of the kid you represented in your paper. It is the best in class! It would be wonderful to work with a whole class of creative young writers such as yourself. Just an A-...plus 1 ROUND TUIT on this one... Suggestion...study deeper into the idiodynamics of self and utilize those perceptions as your basis for the character's reality. |
