A Poem I Wrote When I Was 14

I found this in one of my old school folders...I remember making sure this had heaps of meaning in it and that it was something that I strongly felt...I used to write poems all the time when I was younger and remember getting really frustrated with myself for not being able to write this poem that was needed for school...but I eventually did it and thought I'd share...

"I hate this place

I want to leave

But I have no place to go

If I could go

I’d fly away

And never come back home

All these eyes

Are glued to me

Creating pictures that lie

Suffocated by the misery

It strangles me

As each day passes by

I have no choice

But to cover up

My hatred for this world

Now let me hide

And cry inside

Don’t care for this broken girl

Your pathetic attempt

To understand

Has failed a million times

All I need

Is your guidance

To show me where hope shines

As inevitable as the rising sun

All blame is laid on me

Regardless of my story

Seeking for redemption

From living life confused

Don’t want another sorry

And what a waste

It would be

A life full of energy and youth

But only I

Would know about

The anger, the pain, the truth"
