Why me
Why must I go through this
Why must no one understand
Why do people's jokes hurt so much
Why do people have to laugh at me
Why can't I be normal
Why can't be happy forever
Why do I have to go on like this

Such a weird word why.
So weird that it appears
Way to often in my thoughts
And in my mouth
Untill I have to swallow it down
So no one laughs at me
And I don't cry again
At least in public

Paint
Alex Jan 2018
By: Alexandra Suttles
Running through the woods
Where am I?
Why am I here?
Who am I?
I see no exit
I’m just stuck
I between the trees
I try to run
But I fail
So, I resort to blending in
I paint myself like the other trees
So, nothing can eat me
----------------------------------
It keeps coming
Closer and closer
I can’t escape it
I want to hide
I run to a cave
Where it’s all grey
So, I paint myself grey
So, nothing can eat me
--------------------------------
It’s here now
I can’t escape
The paint isn’t working
It can’t hide me
It all comes out
And now they laugh at me
Why?

Private
Alex Jul 2018
Don't talk to me
Nor look at me
Because I wish to be invisible
My dignity very fragile

You scroll through my chats
On my social media, they aren't so flat
They have private things, embarrassing things
Things I'd rather you not see

But you saw the words
And laughed at my hurt
And you told my family
And I'm embarrassed.

I don't care if I'm not in trouble now,
I will be later, because you looked through my chats
You looked through my stuff
And that stuff was private.

Sick
Alex Aug 2018
I can't breath
My nose all stuffed

My throat itches
And feels super puffed

I feel like dying
Or throwing up

Whenever I'm sick
Or have just had enough

Lost Friends
Alex Jun 2018
Let us sit together

And listen to the songs

We can look above

As we share our fears



My friends and I, we know no love

But for eachother

So--

What are we waiting for?



The first one who left,

She was so special

But her family was torn apart,

And she took the pills



She fell on the floor, oh what a sight

And with a final breath

She spoke to the night,

She said,



Look what this world did to me.

I couldn't take no more

But remember, when you look above,

I'll be looking right at you.

Don't worry-

You'll forget me.

I couldn't take the world head on

So now- I'm gone.



The next two girls,

What a future

They had...

In store



But the abuse and fear

Drove them to death,

So they cut their wrists

And said



Look what this world did to me.

I couldn't take no more

But remember, when you look above,

I'll be looking right at you.

Don't worry-

You'll forget me.

I couldn't take the world head on

So now- I'm gone.



The fourth one was so great,

But love shattered her brain

He left her

He forgot her.



She was confused, she was scared

It took all that she had, to tie

The final knot,

And look above, she said



Look what this world did to me.

I couldn't take no more

But remember, when you look above,

I'll be looking right at you.

Don't worry-

You'll forget me.

I couldn't take the world head on

So now- I'm gone.



The final girl I loved,

It was an accident

But, with my luck

She is gone...



He hurt her

He killed her

And now what do I have left?

Her final breath said



Look what this world did to me.

I couldn't take no more

But remember, when you look above,

I'll be looking right at you.

Don't worry-

You'll forget me.

I couldn't take the world head on

So now- I'm gone.



And me? Well I sit

Here writing this song.

Hoping that, my friends

Aren't gone.



Anything can happen

In a matter of seconds

I don't want to....

I can't lose you...



So please, don't leave me

Here lying awake

Just to look at the stars...



And see you

And see you...

A friend that's just... gone.
This little poem/song thing was just something I came up with after being with my friends one night, I hope you liked it!

Secrets
Alex Jul 2018
I'll tell you my secret
Maybe another
Because I trust that
You won't speak of it

So I tell you, and you go home
Then the next day
They all know about it...
Wonder how that happened.

Now they laugh at me
And tease me for my life
But you told them the wrong thing...
Did you listen at all?

So not only did you betray me,
And my trust,
But now I know,
You didn't even care

So now I keep my secrets
All bottled up
And since you left me,
I have no friends to share them with

Stardust
Alex May 2018
Everynight I look up
In the night, I sip my cup
I stare at the stardust
Leaning on my car of rust

Because I'm not rich, nor poor
But somethings I have lure,
And I can't leave them
As I think... I trace the cup rim

I remember the days
Filled with grace
When I didn't care
When we learned to share

But now my memories, I can't let go
No matter how old
Because those little thoughts
Make my whole self up

And without the memories, I always fear
My life won't be so clear
And I won't ever find myself again,
Lost in this world of sin

— The End —
