I'm hurt! I'm hurt! I'm hurt! My heart is racing! I’m so rattled, My hands are shaking. I’m on a bench on a cold winter night. I would do anything to get away from this fight. I’d rather be cold, and alone, Than warm, and at home. The strife! The strife! The strife! I am drowned by my life. My breath leaves me as tears come to me. I don’t but I do, want someone to see me. What am I doing? I’m not depressed. I guess I just write when I am stressed. My poems show me how I feel. I accept these feelings, then I deal, With my thoughts, So I can overcome this day. After all, I know the way.

Stressed Not Depressed
I'm hurt! I'm hurt! I'm hurt! My heart is racing! I’m so rattled, My hands are shaking. I’m on a bench on a cold winter night. I would do anything to get away from this fight. I’d rather be cold, and alone, Than warm, and at home. The strife! The strife! The strife! I am drowned by my life. My breath leaves me as tears come to me. I don’t but I do, want someone to see me. What am I doing? I’m not depressed. I guess I just write when I am stressed. My poems show me how I feel. I accept these feelings, then I deal, With my thoughts, So I can overcome this day. After all, I know the way.
