best friend

********************************************

i got a tan, so i can look
like your hollywood trophy wife
stopped biting my nails
for at least a week
so you can see how well i can do
i started new things but want the old
and i never have felt this alone
i hate love because its ineveitable, being heartbroken at this age
and then it stopped
i bit my nails
and dug into the cookie dough
and i cried myself to sleep
the battle in my head between
the demons lurking there
has got me scared
to move a muscle
for fear i may turn against
my best friend

because who am i without myself?
this overweight ugly reject
who's crazy and psycho and no one wants me
so here i am all alone
and i over react and i watch my back
and i lie to cover my mistakes
and all i had wanted was one childish dream
but even now i have naught
there's no one to talk to, no one to tell
no one who cares or wishes me well
i wish i could curl up into a ball
in the snowdrifts and sleep forevermore

the clown that i am
with my makeup that hides
who i am and all that i feel
stop me someone oh please.
from thinkin these wild thoughts i do
tryin to leap out from two story windows and screaming in an empty room
if i ever don't show up one day
and the school tells you i'm gone
there was nothin that was done to help me

maybe i will be famous
and maybe i just wished for a life i will never have
now i get to go cry for all the crap i have got me into
and maybe poison myself with my tears
if i cried you a river i would surely drown.

peace.

I rarely cry and this poem almost made me cry i felt I was with you suffering in your pain. In a way I guess I am since I can relate to your poems so much. You have a great talent for writing don't stop let your emotions flow onto the paper. I love the last 2 lines in the 2nd to last stanza. They stand out to me particularly.
