Perfection is happiness
Sitting in class it's so silent
We are supposed to be writing poems
But what is a poem...
Does it have rules
Do I have to rhyme
And have rhythm
Or can I just write about whatever the **** I feel like
Can I just share these feelings that are weighing me down
They feel like stones on my chest
Slowly crunching me to my death
I cry myself to sleep every night because I don't know who to tell...
I want to tell someone, anyone who would listen
But I stop because the words taste so sour on my lips
So I run away and hide
I run to my room and hide those feelings in that drawer
That drawer that is crammed full of feelings and sad thoughts
Because we are supposed to be happy...
So I try to live like society always being happy never telling or showing anyone who I really am
Because who would like me If I told them that I am depressed and broken and have scars so deep that I will never heal
Would would love me if I told you that...
Would you?
Well I don't think you would because I don't even love myself
I can't remember the last time I looked in the mirror and smiled at my reflection...
That fat all over my body
Those pimples
Why can't they all be gone
I want to be perfect
Because u can only be happy when you're perfect right?
That's what we are taught as little kids
It's so sad and sicken I just to open that draw and throw those feeling up in the air cause I don't give a **** anymore
I want to run up and show everyone my scars
To yell at them and cry because I'm tired of hiding
I want to be free of this weight
But instead of sharing it with anyone I'm just sitting here writing a poem that will end up in the drawer
And if the teacher calls on me I will just not answer because I'm scared to share this with u...
