What Is So Wrong With Me?

by Jessica   Jun 13, 2006


What is so wrong with my life?
That makes me feel this way..
What is so wrong with me?
That makes these feelings
Follow me every day..

I just want to curl up and die..
So just please let me be..
I just need a moment
To sit down and think..
I just need a moment
To let go of you..

I feel like I have been
Left alone
Left all alone
In a spiteful dark room..
The walls closing in on me
And you gladly watching
My desperate struggle
For freedom..
The freedom from you..

I lay all alone
On my tearstained bed
Gripping onto my pillow
And pretending urgently
That it was someone
That loved me,
Someone who cared..

And as I cry
My eyes become
Red and swollen..
And my heart
Shrivels up..

I look carefully into the mirror
And I shall never forget
The person I see..
That ghostly pale girl
With the tears of
Hatred and love
Running down her cheeks..

The expression
Of pure defeat
Lingers in her eyes
Before she takes
That one last step
And stabs a jagged knife
Into her already broken heart
Eternally sending her soul up above..
To no longer feel this pain..
This hatred and this loss..
She no longer is trapped
And has finally gained her freedom..

    Though the emotion in the poem was well done, along with the imagery, I felt like the lack of personal detail was a flaw. Instead of delving into the problems of the girl, the poem just brushes over the fact that they exist. It focuses more on her emotion than the girl herself. I think that if you were to revise the poem, you should at least add one stanza of recollection or reflection upon the personal details.

    Aww such a sad poem. I can feel all the emotions you put in there. There is nothing wrong with you, it's the world. The world is a cruel place, because of people. Not us, but people! lol. Of fine, I blame all the bad people, and I don't think you're a bad person, so it's not you! .. anyways I hope that bit made you laugh. I am so confusing at times. Great poem, I enjoyed it. We sometimes questions ourselves with that one.
