My Shitty Teen Angst Poetry

Words of a Dead Man

I'm not sad and yet I am

Sadness turns to rage

Then to surrender, I just won't give a damn

Scribble my feelings then burn the page

Invisible to the eyes of this world

Say I'm happy, fake a smile

A web of lies unfurled

Take my feelings and throw them in a pile

Pour the gasoline, set them all ablaze

Watch the beauty of the dancing flames

My mind in a foggy haze

My world nothing more than cruel games

Me a doll, a toy, a fake

Manipulated, controlled, never to be free

Fragile, useless, easy to break

Stuck this way endlessly

I cannot run, I'm forced to stay

To suffer silently with every breath

I make a choice to get away

I make a choice, an early death
