we said what we think.
And just because it's not  the same,
or just because someone couldn't understand
We got blamed at.
We went through the path full of hatred
of an entire world.
They said "You're free."
But their offenses appear like bullets
from nowhere.
Without letting us a break.
We can't dream when sleeping,
We can't live without hiding.
Even though it is an "old joke"
it still happens
it still hurts
And we swallow our words,
pretending we are unconscious
pretending we have no opinion
and we're losing our sanity.
WHO ARE WE?
Maybe we already forgot.
But we still know what we're not.
This is my first poem, or the first poem I upload to the internet. It's story is a bit of just random. Today at school, in english class, a teacher I haven't even met in a school I've been for around 5 years, told us to use some verbs and write something, anything, with them. Some of those were: sleep, say, understand, to be, and some other verbs I don't remember now. I thought about what happens to many kids and teenagers, mostly in schools today. I made it in about... 10 minutes maybe?

Well, I hope you like it. :)

they're back
my little friends
they tell me how
im suppose to live.

my whole body
is trembling
scared that my mind
will fall for the
beautiful words
my little friends come up with.

"come on girl."
"you just need that blade"
"run it across a few times"
"no one has to know"

FOR ***** SAKE JUST LEAVE ME ALONE.
im crying out.
and I want no one
and im scared
to make mistakes
and fall into unhealthy
love for the voices
who tell me
how I need to live.

susan
you
i see you
in the distance
waving to me
   beckoning
i imagine you calling to me
i never left...
i'm right here


and i'll run to you
and you'll lift me up
and swing me round
planting a big, wet,
sloppy kiss on me
laughing, saying
i told you, i never left
i'm right here


and i won't wake up
               because i didn't want you to leave
i always wanted you to stay
             right here.
I wish I was Stronger.
Handsome.
Attractive.

Instead of this whiney
Hopeless
*******.
Eh...
