Youth

My brother

doesn't love me;

he thinks I am annoying

and I cant blame him

Now im back to what

used to be

finding myself as a waste of time

and space

Thinking if I cut deeper

it will all go away

and just disappear

like my feelings

that I am sopposed to have

in this thing I have

that's called a heart

I can't look him in the eyes

no more

in fact I never could;

not to him nor anybody else

I put everyone

throu so much pain 

maybe I should go

ghost or M.I.A

and roll back into the shadows

or go make my grave

Author's Note

I wrote this poem when I was younger and I didn't know what to do...

This is painfully beautiful and so heartfelt, but please know you are not worthless at all. Brothers can be a pain, I know, I have one. I'm sure deep down he does care about you. People do care :) If not, please know that I care for you. You are a human being and deserve that much :)

[Harmartia Poe]

That's what I aim to prove.

very well expressed feelings at younger age...

[Isabella]

when we are younger is when we are able to feel the most

[Writer at last! Sky ~]

Yes absolutely right.

I like the honest and directness of the poem. When we are young. Hard to understand many things. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

yes this is true but if someone would actually teach us when where young then it is easier to understand because we still have our brains running wild.

This really shows a certain time in your life when you^^^ "didn't know what to do." as painful as this is, I like the way it reflects a time in your life. :)

[Isabella]

thank you your opinion truly helps.

[Jessica Lynn Polley]

This poem is very painful and I can feel the desperation in it...I love the minimal use of words that still manage to convey such a powerful message. Great write!

[Isabella]

If you truly feel the pain then you must've felt it for that I am truly sorry and thank you
