Dizzy!

Circling around and around,
I’m stuck in this rut again,

Wanting to desperately break out

And to push off these weights holding me down.

But I feel like I can’t, and I feel weak and worthless,

Wanting to just cry out and scream until my ears bleed

And until the tears running down my face dry up fast.

There’s constant thoughts piercing my mind that are saying,

“Why didn’t I do this? Why can’t this be like that?

Why can’t it be over sooner than I want it to be over?”

 It’s like a never-ending cycle of things on my mind,

Never letting go until I forget about them.

And when something else comes up,

Then the river of lava flowing into my mind

And it’s constant for as long as I think about it.

SO GET AWAY, STAY AWAY!

I’d break your face if you were real. 

Author's Note

I'm kind of angry with myself right now because I thought things were going to be different. They are,but they aren't. I'm getting mad over little things that are irritating me more and more. And I feel like this can be said in a poetry slam. xD
But I'd be embarrassed to go up on stage and express my poem like that.

Short,but explanatory poem.

Interesting piece, something that most (If not all) can really relate with. Well done. And I agree, sometimes emotions are better transformed into words rather than channeled into violence. Hope you're feeling better now.

Keep Writing. ^__^
