it's dark in there and i can not see.
when  i step inside i feel like i'm drowning in a sea.
no one really wants me there but they say they do.
i know i'm in the wrong place.

why doesn't it work, what's wrong with me?
am i the problem, was i right? i am a mistake?
the people don't  know they don't get it.
i know i'm not alone but mentally i am.

there is no one for me i can't explain why.
i want to leave but i'm required to stay.
can someone shine a light? i cant find my way.
i've lost my will i put myself in those who care...

those people aren't there.
they're just a figment of my imagination.
i'd like to think i'm important but it always stays the same.
i'm not compatible i'm just "nice".
it's a persona i put on to make people think they like me.

it's okay....i dont wanna fit in.
its no good anyway, once you're thrown out you see the truth.
the truth isn't as satisfying as i thought it would be...
is there a point in life? if there is i'd like to see.

this poem is probably trash, it's just high-school drama.
i tried to be something but........nothing works.
