I am here and I am broken,
My life a gift or given token,
My mind is completely shattered,
Nothing ever stays the same
I'm the girl he singled out,
I had to play his game

He took my will and set it free,
One love lost; not meant to be
He was now my first mistake,
He made me watch my friendships break,
And now revealed all that's written:
Love isn't real; love's forbidden
I found this in a journal from what I thought was 'heartbreak' I experienced at 15 and it's one of the only poems I've made rhyme - still fairly simply but rhyme is quite an achievement for me!
My body is here but my mind is not
I have this feeling I am missing something
Something that can make me feel great
I hope I will find this something soon
Because I don't know how long I can wait
Even though I am 18 life can feel hard
I know I am only young
But sometimes life comes up and kicks you down
So this is what I say to life
*******
I will get up and be a better and stronger person
The thing is what I have learnt in my 18 years
Life is hard but don't remember the hard parts
Learn from them

I'm tuning out
I'm falling down
But the race has already begun
I've never won
And I will never win
I'm loosing hold
Before I had a grip
I'm tucking away
I'm slipping out
And I'm gone
Before I had a chance
I never had a chance
It's the way I am
It's the way I've been
It's the way I'll always be
And I'm so tired
