I know that I am selfish
I know that I have no depth
I know I swim in self pitty
I know my mind's eye needs help

I want to scream, "Shut off the TV!"
I want to pound the ground
I want to stop writing these poems
You don't take my seriously
Neither do I!
What am I looking for?
More pitty?
No.
Don't take it that way please
Maybe I'm searching for what I haven't gotten
Attention
More
And
More

Attention!

I want to get out of this,
This
STAGE
I'm going through
These awful growing, learning, changing moods
These
Teeange years

I just want to be happy for once
And not get depressd and hour later.




Gather ye rosebuds while ye may,
Old time is still a-flying,
And this same flower that smiles today
To-morrow will be dying.

-Robert Herrick

This sounds so much like my daughters!  I'm glad you found a constructive way to rant.     There will be times you don't want to hear it, but this, too, shall pass.

To love another person is to see the face of God.

It isn't ranting if there is some truth or reason to what you're saying, and I'm seeing large quantities of both here Joy   hehehe

No rhyme, but great flow...and as far as non-rhyming works go this one is pretty, uh...[expletive] good! lol  

Good to see you in the Pub and I hope you stop by more often, if no one else misses you here (and I seriously doubt that) I do anyway...!

Moves with the rhymes' flow.

Though my body be
Human, my heart and soul be
That of a dragon.

Good for you! Let it all out and then let go!I've found that when I need attention, that's usually a good time to give the attention to someone else and I always feel better.   Love, Ellie

ah, yes I remeber the days

Sometimes you have to let go and move on,
But never let go of the memories.

Nothing wrong with a rant here and there. I'd be a bit afraid of me if I didn't rant once in a while....all that bottled up emotions.....Phew...stand clear!



I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I hate your socks. I'd like to burn them!
