The  Horrible Truths Of Life

Confused

annoyed

full too much

want to help out

but can't do want takes a village to do

Got my own dreams

so need time for them

I leave the rest behind.

poverty

sickness

death galore

all too much for my 12 year old head.

Can't stop on the road to success

might cause a crash

that will change my destination.

but leaving the rest behind

will leave me with what I fear the most

guilt

One thing I've learned on this crazy road

with too much demolition done

making the road harder than it has to be

we're all in this together

But what do I know

My journey isn't finished

I'm only on my twelfth year

I want your wisdom

but wait

not to much

just a nudge in the right direction

when I reach that fork in the road

Will you be there

to help me out

do you really care

which road I take

The nice one

nice and smooth

or

the one with the tire tracks of pain.

T.V Land

Don't know why

I like it so much

T.V I mean

it drives me insane

but

for some reason

I watch it religiously

 

I wake up

to the joyful sound

of commercial jingles

(why me?)

 

Eveything is happy

in T.V Land

 

Another thing 

that makes me crazy

10 tips

for your health

It changes everyday

why don't these doctors

make up there minds

seems like they come up with

crazier things everyday

Tell me please

I just don't comprehend

how in the world

does a GPS help

back pains?

I wonder who else

believes this crap

 

Any things possible

in T.V land

 

Next

the weight loss commercials

save me please

like really what's with the skinny people

on weight loss commercials

What about the fat people

the ones who truly need it

do they get any help

And what about the anorexic people

is this what makes them crack

 

No ones too skinny

in T.v land

But it seems that T.V land is

turning us all upside down.

 

My life

I decided to write a

six line poem

about my life But,

then I realized

my life is not complete

Let somebody else write it.

 

Rebellion

I'm down here

you're up there

you make the rules

I'm left to followthem

that's how it was

fro the longest

But know

I'm changing

Now

I understand more than you expect me to

more than you want me to 

I don't need you as much

but I still need you there

to tell me the things

that aren't contained

in my head

for you will always be my dad

and

I will

always be your

daughter

 

 Regret

You lay there

all alone

no one there

to help you

to pull you through

this dark moment

of life

how this happened ?

you don't know

you used to have people

to hold you up

Then you remember what happened before

 

It's just so crazy

how things can change

how fast

the sweet become

bitter

just like you

 

You grew to like the privacy

closing everyone out

till

you were satisfied

but once you were satisfied

you wanted everyone

to come back

but no one comes

you pushed them away

 

Now here you are

all alone

with no one

to hold you

No one want to come

cause no one wants you

you shooed them away

with your bitterness

but tell me

are you happy now?

 

open your mind for me

Why

just tell me

do you have to be

so closed minded

what's wrong?

with a little rock

and skulls and cross bones

on everthing I wear

everything dark

what's wrong with that

Why can't I climb up

and jump back down

try it

just once

you may

just maybe

you will see

where

the fun is at

you will see

what life has to offer

but

you refuse

but

why

why are you

so afraid

and why

are you 

holding

me?

back

I love you

but

this has to stop

is this idea

of life

bringing everyone

down

leave me

to explore

to be 

who 

I want 

to be

maybe

I hope 

you will learn

a thing or maybe 

two 

until then

I will ask

over

and over

why are you

so afraid

and why

are you 

holding

me?

back

I love you

but

this

HAS

to stop

My Computer

I hate this computer

what a pain

it takes 50 years

(well maybe less)

to reach

the internet

I call it dumb and stupid

it seems to comprehend

cause it gets slower

and slower

with every insult I throw

I guess

my computer hates me too

 

Crushed by Crushing    (title may change)

I got this

secret

I'm dying to tell

it's bubbling

inside me

while it burns a hole

in my heart

it's not sin

but

I just got to tell

does he know

is this the reason

he acts so weird

around me

only

it has to be

theres no other reason

but how

does he know

me

Who's

the first 

to go

I know 

the ones sitting

in the corner

over there

not us

the ones who stand

for what's right

the ones who fight

till the end

we stay around

to the end

we're the ones

who stay

in the hearts and minds

of the

new generation

 

I made a mistake

in using the word we

for I am the one

who sits in the corner

over there

the first to go

so I wrote this poem

to tell you

one thing

I speak this poem 

today

to tell you

not 

to 

be

me.
