The Pressure

My brother says this poem sucks, lacks direction and is too long. He doesn't want you to read it so read one of my cooler poems.

The pressure to finish all my summer homework
4 books, 4 projects, and a few maps
The fun never ends!
The pressure of getting braces on my teeth
Bite harder they say
But my teeth ache
I know no other pain
1 1/2 hours later tears run down my cheeks
And they are almost finished
The pressure of making the right call in the game
What's it going to be out or safe?
They all look at me
I'll be in trouble if I answer wrong
But which answer is correct?
The pressure to do everything I want to do this summer
To relax, make a purse, write more of my book, get new closet doors, clean my room...
The list goes on and on
The pressure to make my friends and mom happy
I can't get angry or it will come back to me
It seems revenge is big now
I try not to get revenge just dream of it instead
But others plot to hurt each other as much as they have been hurt
Screw forgiveness when you can get revenge instead
I'm tempted to throw it back in their face
Laugh and walk away but I wouldn't be able to take the expression on their faces
Knowing they would come back to hurt me in the end
The pressure to try my hardest and still not be good enough
I always seem to come up short
People have to point out what is wrong with me
They can't leave good enough alone
You know if I were you I would (have)... they say
As if I didn't try my hardest
If I had cared how you would have done something better than me I would of asked
If I cared that much about my appearance I would of fixed all those things you find wrong with me
All this pressure is killing me.
