Hey everyone...this is a really weird way to express how i feel when getting through a school day.

The world is spinning round and round,
Dont loose your concentration,
Your bound to fall down.
Pick your head up and say your ok,
No worries sweetheart,
Tomorrow's another day.
Ring around the rosey,
A pocket full of posey,
Ashes,
Ashes,
I think im gonna drown!
Smile and nod,
Socialize through the halls,
Keep your head up,
Watch out your gonna fall.
Keep on going,
You've almost gotten through the day,
Hurry up,
Keep the tears away.
Block out the voices,
Push your way through,
Leave me alone!
I cant stand all of you!
Rush down your block,
Your house is in sight,
Run up the stairs,
Close your door.
Now your safe...
You cant be hurt anymore.
Hurt from the work,
The gossip,
The socialization.
How come it took me this long,
to come to this realization?
Close my eyes,
Take a deep breath,
Prepare myself,
To do it all over again.

Hey, this was great. I personally do not face these anguishes in school because.....i'm one of those "popular" people. I disgaree with the idea and concept of that whole deal of popularity, but i mean...... i used to go through what this poem states. Hell....it's pure hell. I've been on all sides of the popularity scale, and believe me...both suck in their own way. I don't know....... you wouldn't know MY situation and i wouldn't know yours....but great poem.



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

This poem was so so so so SO great. I think it's the best of the best... this poem is going to my top 10. Woooow, I really REALLY loved it.
Popularity, popularity and social groups and status really REALLY suck. I'm what some people call an outsider. I'm that guy that doesn't belong to any group of friend, but everyone knows. I hate beeing with the same people all the time, and I hate seeing that some people just believe that they are better than others... it really sucks!
About your poem, I really know what it feels like, I'm like that, like you? I really felt in my hearth your poem, it makes me remind my everyday.... I really loved when you said "Tomorrow's another day" and then "Prepare myself, to do it all over again", I mean isn't that ironic, but it's the truth. Tomorrow doesn't seem to be the day after today... I mean today was the same than yesterday.
Ok, I'm gonna stop writting, but this topic really got me. Thanks for sharing this poem, I really think it's so great, it's really great.
Bye, your friend,

  Hey this was AWESOME. What a great word. AWESOME! And it definitely describes what you've got here. I know exactly what you were writing about. I never dared to put it into text though!! Well, keep up the great work. Happy writing!!
