Oh Why!?!A Poem by Dennis ShanabergEmo Insomnia SongTrying too hard to fit in with people who don’t know who I am. Trying so hard, but’ve realized that I haven’t got any friends. Looking so sad--eyes drooping with too much sleep n’ no dreams. I want it too bad, but no one will call my silly want a need. Why can’t I be normal to a fault? Why can’t I have friendly friends at beckoned calls? Why am I an outcast in normal clothes? Why have I lost every person that I’ve come to know? I cry And then I cry to myself All night. I’m losin’ so bad now all my cash and soon t’be my car. I talk a big talk, but the truth is that I’ve not gotten very far. I see my fear now, of living small and dying dry. Used to pray: God, Why is it always this same old way? Oh why? I cry And then I cry to myself All night. Oh why? I cry. Oh--now I’ve cried myself to sleep. © 2013 Dennis ShanabergReviews
