I am.

I can't fly,

I can't really multiply.

I can't dance,

I can't take a chance.

I'm useless,

I'm ugly.

Unworthy, Nobody loves me.

I'm shameful,

i'm worthless,

but most of all..

I'm lonely

Take a flight, with a calculator in hand, to a dance studio, which requires taking a chance and becomes useful to your dance partner, who thinks your both pretty cool looking, who will think you a worthy partner, love you for that because shameless dance if the most liberating, worth the entertainment value alone, and keeps you company. Not that I dance. I just needed to cover all your issues. Look not to others hoping to find yourself. Then read this Haiku.

Void, empty, lost, afraid
Racing toward nothing known
The light, in my hand

[Lowesy]

a lot of people feel this way sometimes, happiness is right around the corner though!

The language of the heart, in open, honest and vulnerable format. Who wouldn't be moved and empathise, whilst relating their own experience also, to this. Thankyou.

No wonder you're lonely if you think of yourself like that.

Dear SuicidePact.,

Wow, this is really negative. Try turning it around.

I can fly
I can multiply
I can dance
I can take a chance
I'm useful
I'm beautiful
Worthy, somebody loves me
I'm unashamed
I'm worth it
but most of all
I'm awesome.


Just saying there's a lot of I can't's.

Sincerely Livana Lowell (LL)

God bless

Powerful words, well expressed.

All of us can relate to these feelings at some point. The challenge is to not let those moments define us. Inner strength to push the negativity aside to let your light shine is very important. The poem is very depressing. Negativity and sadness breeds more of it, bringing it again back to you. As they say, "Fake it 'til you make it." So smile when you want to cry, reach out when you want to curl into yourself, and for Pete's sake if you care for someone, just let them know, even if they don't respond in kind. Great poem on inner most feelings we have all faced.

If only I could impress upon you how much I can relate to this... EVERY line feels like it could be about me, like what I am saying to myself as I sit here in the dark. I struggle with similar thoughts and feelings. I think for some it is hard not to because society enforces a certain brand of image that is impossible to live up to.

Touché. This one hit homerun for me. Although, you're a tad too young to be feeling this way. I say this yet I'm not excluded from the list. There are some things worth searching for and those things are what makes these annoying emotions seem unworthy of any thought. You've still got a life to live.
