Teenage Angst

A poem that I wrote when I was a teenager. It is dreadfully angsty. Even by teen standards. I know it's not very poetic, but I didn't want to change it too much from what it was.

Sometimes I realize,

People stare with blind eyes.

We are like pebbles of sand,

Easingly spread by hand.

As I look up at the sky,

I begin to wonder why,

Do I have to live just to die?

People also have asked for an answer not a lie.

____________________

Accusing they knew it would start,

As they began to harden at heart.

As they neglected a cry

and watched a child die.

______________________

Being popular means a lot of pain.

They realize it when in the rain

Clinging to you has kept me sane,

it also has soothed the pain

_______________________

COULDN'T IT BE?!

Could it be a truth you and me?

These thoughts scream from mind,

trying to stop these sorrows I find.

__________________________

I walked to the end,

but you stopped me, my friend.

For loving you has torn me apart,

but somewhere in my heart...

you shall never truly part...
