Sick

It's almost sick how sick I am.
You run around with your happy faces and intimate spaces
and I hate you for it.
I hate you.
I'm sad so why isn't the world ending?
Why aren't people stoping?
Why does time keep clocking
every move I make?
I hate this place!
The beauty of the world has shunned me
so I've turned back on it too.
I kick it around because it means nothing to me.
I'm angry and sick and sad and
what the hell?
WHAT. THE. HELL.
Nothing works out.
I give you my soul, my heart my speech
but you, you give it away
like it meant nothing to you
in the first place.
I rage and laugh and cry.
because I don't know what to do.
I can't control myself without your dependancy.
I need you to need me.
I want you to push me away
only so you can come back
and we can do it all again.
It was way back in seventh year
when I lost myself.
Even through years of clawing back
I can't find that person anymore.
I slip back into my new self.
full of hatefully colored emotions
and blood steeped with
every word they've ever told me.
It rushes through my ears when I sleep.
I hear it, feel it, breathe it, see it.
I live those words.
I cry no more tears.
I live in fear of my fearlessness.
I hate myself for my hatefullness.
I yell at myself in hushed tones.
It's sick how sick I am.

Hey, I'm not sure if how I perceived this was right, but I kinda got your message for this one.

It's like how others felt, I guess, and you just happen to wrote them perfectly in words. Somehow, it made me felt horrible (it's a good thing if that's what your poem intends to do).

I had a thing attatched to this explaining that its a slam poem. no organization but its me laid out on a dissection table for you. everything that im feeling right now...seriously where did that go?



No great thing is created suddenly. There must be time. Give your best and always be kind.
