You, he who subdued me, be not insolent, forget not the beauty of virtue.


Yet another fight with mother,
Again a fit I threw.
If only I controlled the latter.
Can't she understand how I feel?
That the world hopes to drag me down?
Through the ground? Into the devil's arms?

I was just at school, never loved, never more.
Just me, trying to live in a world that beats up on my mind and me.
They never loved, never cared.
Don't they understand?
That the world seeks to do me in?
To diminish my grin? To drag me into the devil's arms?

Father's wasn't much better than the rest.
Far from the best.
We don't agree on anything. Don't see eye to eye. I kinda wish that he would just die.
Doesn't he understand?
That the world would get to me?
Making me wish that it would just kill me? Would be so mean?
To drag me down? Through the ground?
Into the devil's arms?

I am finally alone in darkness,
don't have to worry about a likeness.
The world finally let me go,
let me explore death on my own.
To be where I want. To be what I want; a speck on my own, where no one can hurt me.
Can the world drag me down?
As if into a creek to drown? Through the ground? Into the devil's arms?
The answer is no, I am high above it now, safe and sound.

&quot;People, I&#039;ve discovered, are like layers of secrets. You believe you know them, but their motives are always hidden from you, buried in their own hearts. You will never know them, but sometimes, you decide to trust them. <br /> <br /> -Veronica Roth

When I was a boy, I would always hear scary things in the news and my mother would say to me, &quot;Always look for the helpers. Everywhere you look you will always find people helping.&quot; - Fred Rogers

It's pretty good, but it's lacking in the imagery and the tempo. But, despite that, I liked this poem! I mean, these kind of poems typically aren't my thing, but I really enjoyed this one. 4/5

this is how I felt the day i wrote this, the night before i had retreated into my room and the next morning this was the result, my future step-sissies said it was pretty good so i guess it was good that my mom made me mad that night and god allowed me to stay unhappy until the next morning until i published this. all in all, i guess it took a lot of my anger toward my mom and flushed it down the toilet.
