Stuck In This World

by stefanie   May 24, 2007


Feeling lost
And all alone,
I'm stuck in this world
To fight on my own.

The person I love
Says I was never his friend.
He always wants us to be more
But a friend I can never be again.

I'll be losing so many friends
With graduation right around the corner,
But yet the number of them i can trust
Keeps getting lower and lower and lower.

I'm feeling so sick
that it hurts when I smile.
When I'm suppose to stand strong
I curl up like a little child.

I'm full of worry
And I'm always scared.
I can never keep him happy
No matter how much I care.

My heart bears the marks of holes
Caused by so many multiple wounds.
I try so hard to keep going strong
But always end up falling too soon.

My mind tells me one thing
While my heart speaks another.
All the hurt and the pain
I so desperately try to cover.

I know what I want
But know not what to do.
I'm terribly afraid
That I'll forever stay confused.

Stefanie, 2007

    Ok, since the grammar police already showed up...

    Anyway, I strongly identify with the sentiments you've expressed in this piece. You've managed to craft your despair into a wonderful work of art. :)

    Thank you for calling my attention to this one!

    Stanza 1: Don't capitalize and, and to.
    Stanza 2: Never is used quite a bit in this one stanza. Don't capitalize says, but.
    Stanza 3: Capitalize "I". Uncapitalize keeps, with, and but.
    Stanza 4: Great.
    Stanza 5: Uncapitalize 'no' and, 'and'.
    Stanza 6: 'caused' 'but' need to be uncapitalized.
    Stanza 7: Uncapitalize 'while'
    Stanza 8: 'but' and 'that' need to be uncapitalized.

    Overall: You did a wonderful job with this poem. Great emotion, good choice of words.
    Keep it up. <3

    I really enjoyed your poem and the sadness that it portrayed. I know what it feels like to be afraid of graduation and moving on with life, everything seems to be as good as it gets right now. I promise things will get better and you'll keep your old friendships while making new ones. Excellent job 5/5
