My Shitty Teen Angst Poetry

Words of a Dead Girl

It's the same

Every time as if life's a game

And it's a rule

One that's all too cruel

Because if you don't follow what they say

They'll make you regret it every day

They only ever tell me

I need to smile and be happy

But it seems so antithetical

Because this is more than just medical

Anxiety and depression

Overwhelming oppression

That's only the start

Of all the things locked away in my heart

Oh god just fix me, do what you've gotta do

Please hurry I'm begging you

I'll take that little happy pill

Cut me open, I'll sit still

Remove whatever's wrong

Whatever's blocking me from being strong

Steal my eyes, so I'll have no more tears

Take my brain, so I can forget all the painful years

Throw away my heart, it's got no use

Take a rope, tie a noose

Hang me up for all to see

I'm what you should never be

Prove to them you have to play

By the rules or you will pay

Me and them we're just too far apart

Been too different from the start

They have the world's admiration

Me and them, we're a juxtaposition

There is no room for imperfections

They'll find them and make corrections

They'll hunt and catch every one

Once they have them they won't be done

Run away while you can

Just run and run, don't even plan

Don't you dare become like me

Don't conform to a set destiny

My life, it's been taken

And now I realize, I've awaken

I was never really living

The world is truly unforgiving

I've been dead for quite some time

All I can do now is write my mind, but I'll need to speak in a rhyme

Because that's the only way anyone will listen to someone like me

A walking corpse for what seems an eternity

Torn and broken

From all the words I've left unspoken

And from all the blood I've bled

The ocean of tears I've shed

The ocean in which I've drowned

My mind in silence, my internal screaming is the only sound

Crowned by darkness and misery

Feeling pain of infinity

I'm far gone, forever lost

Don't be like me, at any cost
