To adults

by Baby Rainbow   Oct 26, 2008


Every time i try to tell
why does someone always yell
please tell me what i can do
to get my message through to you
spreading gossip that i lie
an attention seeker in your eye
watching me crumble to the ground
you pass by without a sound
why is no one noticing me
why will no one set me free?
all i want is no more pain
never to be hurt and broken again
for someone to see behind my mask
is that too much for a child to ask?
i am so sorry for wasting your time
you have your troubles and i have mine
but as an adult you have more choice
when we need help no one hears our voice
is there anyone out there?
us kids need someone to care
and if no one will want us near
then tell me adults, why are we still here?

    I felt this one, i felt all the children that really do say those words, and the many adults who turn a blind eye, well done

    I really liked this one, it was short, but it got the message across. I am sure many children, or even some adults have felt this way. Many people can relate to this I'm sure, and it is what I believe to be an important topic. We're given a voice, but forbidden to use them. Very sick world, eh?

    I gave you a 5/5

    Lots of anger
    but i know where you're coming from
    i have passed that stage in my life
    but i really understand
    i still look back to when i needed the "adults" to help
    and they left me high and dry
    btw, thanx for the kind words on my poem
    best reveiw i ever got:)
