My Poems [Completed]

Goodbye, My Sweet Child

This is a sad one.

Just waning you.

------<>------

Something always happens

To those who were once happy

And something bad happened

To a girl like me.

I grew up and found

That this world is cruel

With its big swords made of words

And its definition of "cool".

Being cool was being skinny

Being cool was having friends

Being cool involved being popular

But that's not how it is in the end.

In the end you're all alone

In the end it ain't worth the fight

In the end you finally see

The dying of your light.

And when I found that out

I say down and cried

Because when I found that out

I found I couldn't fly. (idk)

Liking childish things

Was wrong for kids my age

And so I had to grow up

Until the day they dug my grave.

They found me sleeping peacefully

With cuts up and down my arms

They thought I was okay

But I meant to do to myself harms.

I found I couldn't take it

The pressure, the thoughts, the words

And so I ended up breaking

My parent's spoken irks.

They found the letters on a table

Next to the bed I lay

And they gave them out to people

Who threw them all away.

They wouldn't understand

But when had they ever tried

To see me in my future

Full of a different life?

And now they're lowering me down

Six feet under the ground

And as they bury me in

They say, "Goodbye, my sweet child."

Again, this might be me one day.
