I like books more than people


I can't
I wanna be saved but
I'm lost
And you cant save someone
If you don't know where
They are
They're not on your
Radar
And you can't find them
But their there
Happy
Sad
Angry
Mad
So confused
They'd just rather be depressed
And feel nothing at all
Because their trapped in the big birdcage
Of their mind
And all they feel is small

I have to do it, AHHH, and I'm sorry it's the first feedback you read from me but—both "their"-s should be "they're", lol. Okay, phew, got that off my chest. I really liked this poem, and you definitely have your own unique writing style that seems pretty consistent. The part that goes "would rather just be depressed" is my favorite because its so insightful, I guess. Like, people don't normally think of depression as a choice, but it totally is. Sometimes the numbing effect of depression can be addicting and hard to get away from. Love the meaning and the style, you're a great writer :)

This is a nice piece. There were a few grammar errors, but other than that, it was nice. Keep up the good work!
