Im tired of making everyone happy while i feel miserable inside just smiling and nodding my head with my feelings by the wasteside im done with that no more me the walking mat but when i stand up everyones ashamed of me for being what i want to be so ill stand up alone while they hide their face im leaving the shadows in search of a better place Its better to be hated for who you are than loved for who you are not |

Whoa... this message was truly outstanding. The poem was not bad, but I feel that the message was the key to its power. Great job. Haven't seen you in here before... stay awhile. And visit Teen Explorer. Apparently, they have cake and S&V chips. ~Allan If I had your eyes, I'd be blind. For I can only see out of my own. ~~Carly Van Dort |

Haha there goes allan......yes Teen explorer does have Chips and cake...you just gotta find them! Anyhow, I think this poem had some sad thoughts. You feel as if yer being rejected by the general public there so you are going to leave and find somewhere better. I mean that's a good idea, but only if you've tried everything else. It's like.....yer just going to take what they give you and leave because they want you to. Sometimes there comes a time where you have to stand up for yourself. Nothing physical, just a mental stand where you feel like you have to stay strong and the like. Good poem! I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |

Hey, Get it, this poem was great. I agree with Allen this message was powerful. Although I don't know about this cookies and cake thing hope to see more great work from you but until then -- Linc "Once you reach your original goal it seems that the journey was your real accomplishment." |

Who said anything about cookies? Are there cookies? If I had your eyes, I'd be blind. For I can only see out of my own. ~~Carly Van Dort |

I believe you have a very popular message here. Seriously I couldn't identify more with your poem. Not to mention that it is also an AWESOME poem. Write more please By the way, forget cake and cookies, pie rocks! "The woods are lovely, dark, and deep |

I found the cake before, I found the cake before!!! Sherm, I can definitely relate to every single word of this poem. Making other people happy while you are feeling horrid is the worst way to be living. I hope you find that better place. ~AF~ "It is not necessary to change. Survival is not mandatory." |

This one hit home. I know everything you're talking about, and know how you feel. I'm sorry you feel that way, I know it's not fun. Great poem. --Marie I never thought that you would ever be the one to let me down. I guess that just goes to show how wrong I always am. |

Wow, good story of resilience. I usually use the shadows and light reversed from what you use them for, because people will hold you apart, so maybe the light is a good comparison! lol but anyway, kee posting "Some men see things as they are and say why. |

Hey. I like this one alot, but its kinda sad. Don't let ppl walk all over you, its a terrible thing to do and in the end you always end up hurt. I hope things turn out well for you. Good luck, and good job. ~*Nikki*~ ~*Of all the millions of people in the world, I'm just me.*~ |
