why is it
everyday
i give my
best to the
world
my best
to people
&
all I get
in return
is the
worst
from
everyone?
Spent the whole weekend meditating on my life and why things are the way they are. I understand why I am bitter and jaded now. The only question is do I have a right to be? I'm angry. I don't get angry often.

My current life has me sick at home,
and so I do really want to get to school.
I'd be able to meet new friends in dorm(s),
instead of being alone like a dismal fool.

Since college is what I'd need to attend,
it is where I will have to learn from again.
I could also gladly make more friend(s),
so maybe I could even live in any domain.

I really do need to learn once more,
because I've missed classes as I'm ill.
Even though studying could be a bore,
there is so much I will need to fulfill.
It is SUPER funny that when I had written this on here, I didn't know how many words were in it. When I c&p'ed it in Microsoft Word to check its status, it actually had exactly NINETY-NINE words! That had me edit "I'll" to "I will" for it have ONE HUNDRED words, as my other poems do. This one is also in ABAB form as well.

The enteired town knew me
as weird, lonely and sad
And as the night slipped away
I couldn't sleep, just thought of that.
If you're real,
If it's meant to be
Come take me out,
Come rescue me.
Being part of the wasted youth,
wrapping my arms around myself,
wondering how I ended up this way,
staring at the empty bottle that now sits on the shelf.
If I could just get away,
If I could just disappear,
If I could make you stay,
If I could make my mind clear.
I wanted to feel special,
Closed minds, they always judge.
I have lost all light in me,
Anything left inside? Not much.
Overthinking during the night,
keep on doing it through the day,
I wish I could make things right,
If I'd still believed in a god, I'd pray.
Will it always be this way?
I ache like a thousand piercing needles.
I still wish upon falling starts,
all I want is to find my people.

I still remember the day when you said me goodbye.
We both were going away and you started to cry.

Its gonna be okay i told her that time.
But we never met again since a long time.

She told me one thing which I'll never forget....
There are no distances between two hearts who are made for each other.
One or the other day they gonna meet up again.

Staring at a screen, window to the world
Assault on the senses, unrelenting hold
Power to influence and form an opinion
**** free thought and make you its minion
Billions of bytes to empty before offer ends
Willing to pay more so the service extends
Online gurus have your life defined for you
If millions follow, their words must be true
Staring at a screen,the truth that isn't told
Once you've signed,companies have your soul
