13/F/USA I am starting to write poetry, because I once had a class assignment and my teachers were amazed with my poetry, as my class was as well. I'm giving this a shot.
I had a friend say to me "I'm too weak" "I try so hard to get stronger" "But I can't" She was referring to something athletic wise, yes. But when she said it I immediately connected with the statements No, not athletically But, emotionally. I am weak emotionally I try so hard to fix it But I can't Of course I didn't say this I let her speak But the quote can connect With a lot of us out there. And next time you hear something like that Turn it into "Im weak right now" "But, I'm getting stronger" "I will eventually be the strength I need and want to be."

I'm Weak
Listen I get it Adults have work But so do we We meaning teens When we say its stressful Sometimes the adults tell us We are "lucky" That we don't have an office job Yeah, I get that I get your job is hard. But so is ours You were there. But the teaching system has Gotten harder And harder. Sometimes we go home and work on homework Longer than we were even at the school Yes, its stressful. If you are an adult And have children Or you are an aunt Or an uncle When that child says they are stressed Don't say that you are too Reassure them that the stress will go away And once they are done they will Feel a relief. From finishing that work. Instead of complaining aswell Give sympathy to them You most likely went through the same So give them the advice They need.....

Stress and advice for Parents from a teen.
I was having a conversation With a friend And she said She hides her feelings Around school Around her family Around her friends And sometimes From herself I do the same thing And that day I realized Us people that do that We are usually the People who Help others When others are down Because that That usually helps ourselves But when people try to help us What do we do? We push them away Because we don't like being the ones Who need the help Because to us In our mind That is admitting defeat But in real life It's actually us starting To win To win the battle To win against the harsh feelings And the harsh words Our mind has gone to deal with And through this though I learned Before you save someone else Save yourself first. Because YOU Are what influence your feelings About yourself So when you save yourself You are killing your Thoughts that run through you The thoughts that hurt you the most People give up Because to do this is such a long process But you will get through it I know you can.

Save Yourself
It's easy to fake a smile It's easy to say you're fine It's easy to act all happy But Some people realize its fake Some people Like certain friends Sometimes Family Then they ask They ask what's wrong And your mind Has the choice To admit Or hide Your truth Your past Your emotions And even Your true self So Which will you choose Will you choose To get help To tell everything Or Will you choose To hide it Live with your feelings Have it bottle up In your mind Until that bottle Until that bottle breaks Once it breaks What will you do Who will you go to When will you seek the help you need Choose the wise choice Think about your future

Is something wrong?
The only person I thought Would get it The only person I thought Would trust me The only person I thought Would believe me My mother The person I've grown up with "What did you even do yesterday" She says "I had to handle some things" "Yeah, like what?" She says Little does she know I had lost a friendship yesterday She tells her boyfriend what i said In a sarcastic tone When I start to yell "I LOST A FRIENDSHIP YESTERDAY!" Now she cares Now she actually cares I won't respond to her questions Because she didn't Believe me at first Trust me So, I can trust you.

Trust
Right when you Think you have everything Right when you Think you're happy It all ends Someone ruins it You ruin it Life ruins it Because it always ends Today that Bliss Ended That one day of Bliss Then its gone A simple text A simple statement of "I don't think we can ever be friends again" As the sadness washes over you You realize that text Can **** a soul Can **** a mind Can **** a heart And can **** a friendship A friendship of four years That you will always remember With a person you trusted And to realize You will never celebrate a birthday With them Never have that hours of laughs With them Never walk the hallways talking With them Again You hope the best For them You want them to thrive You want them to have a great future but sadly You will no longer Be a part of that
