untitled


(poems go here)

Have you ever felt down and out?

Stupid?

Unsuccessful?

Afraid?

Bored?

Tired?

Helpless?

Well I have

For I am HUMAN

But the world seems to forget

Shh….

Shh…..

No one wants to hear such things

Why, I scream

Why

For don’t you ever feel this way sometimes

You ‘member that time

 Don’t you remember

Oh please you have to remember!

Shh….

Fine! Forget it

Forget, If you must

But in my world we write

We write and write

Here on this paper I can cry

And it’s ok

I can scream

And it’s ok

I can commit a couple of sins

And it’s ok

I write because I am HUMAN

And the world just can’t handle all of ME!

So I write
