You Don’t Know Me You don’t know What it’s like to be me You don’t know My history You don’t know what I’ve been through You don’t know how many friends Who I thought would be there until the end Turned out to be the opposite of real and true You don’t know why I cry You don’t know the real Kai. You don’t even bother To find out about her You don’t know What it’s like to branded As the lowest of the low You don’t know what it’s like to feel abandoned You don’t know me How do you know what it’s like to be Called things behind your back Because you supposedly lack “Popularity” What do you know About plain cruelness What do you know About feeling less and less Every single day What other way Is there to go, expect rock bottom. When you’re just being yourself And not one of them You don’t know what it’s like To be me To be the only One who cries late at night? You don’t know me at all As I continue to fall |

Thanks! ...thats exactly how i feel sometimes. People don't know the things i've been through so they tend to judge or make fun of or ridicule me... I'm glad someone FINALLY gets it!!  Always, |

Really nice poem. But if your going to rhyme in your poems make them consistent or in a pattern. It just makes it harder to read if you don't. -Zach |

I like this poem a lot. I understand what you mean nobody knows what I am going through right now yet they all seam to think its okay to make fun of me The number one thing in acting is honesty: If you can fake that you've got it made. |

Wow, that was pretty strong. Yea, some people may ridicule and whatnot, but if your true to yourself, you'll always be ahead of them. Poem wise, just to make the poem a bit clearer, you might want to make the rhyming more organized. Other than that, excellent job! (: Forever, Arabesque<3 |

Like a dove lost in the storm, like a flower discarded to the wind. You are lost in the sea of humanity. Beautifully captured. -LostPoet |

kai, I know this won't make you feel better now~~ but when you are older and go back to class reunions you will find out that many who were popular then, no longer have that in the "real world" outside of school. Those who had to work harder, and struggle become successful in the life they choose and are loved or liked and respected for who they are and not who they "hang" with. So just be the best you, that you can be and keep your chin up and be proud ( don't try and follow the in crowd) M |
