A Death Celebrated

Fighting for a lost life, misunderstood by all. While her, herself misunderstood the world as well.

Born into the world and robbed of a life
A constant struggle to keep her head above water
Barely able to catch a breath
Before weights wrapped around pull her under again

Always trying to be good enough
Fighting to make anyone proud
A failure in over her head, flailing around
Amounting to a nothing and a no one

From the shore, just another eyesore
Making too many waves as she thrashes about
Beyond extreme exhaustion, she's giving her all
Kicking with everything she has and everything she is
But everything she is has never been enough

Sinking into dark waters
Beneath the unknown and finally lost of breath
She opens her eyes as water floods the lungs
Just another disappointment to everyone

Until she hears the muffled sounds of applause and celebration
Realizing then, this is what they wanted all along
To be rid of such a burden, the end of a wasted life
If only she had known this, she would have given up a long, long time ago
And to her delicate wrist, would of taken a knife

so sad, yet... no life is meaningless. However, has anyone ever told you that all of your writing screams "ROCK STAR" not sure if I said that before, but it does.

really great yet sad write

the first line was well stated and brought be in

the last line expands on the idea that her life was robbed

very nice
