Nervous

It may be an emotion or another teenage game,

But in my head it's just one thing and it will stay the same,

 

My fingers running through my hair with anger in my eyes,

This feeling that I feel all day the one that I despise,

 

The word we all can guess by now a word that starts with "n",

It always comes around the corner every now and then,

 

Can you taste it? Can you see it? I can feel it in your kiss,

Everybody feels it and the word may be "nervous",

 

Don't chew your nails and hold those tears from falling down your cheeks,

It's also partly anger that may last for more than weeks,

 

So let your mouth curve up and smile let me see your face,

The thing that makes you go insane can now just be erased.

This is amazing! Its simple, the message is blatantly clear, and it all flows together in an easy-to-read and relatable rhyme scheme. Most poems about this topic that rhyme are hard to read and have poor vocabulary. This is a sophisticated version and it's wonderful :)

This poem gives me more meaning to the word nervous, as in many more turnings and alternatives to it. It's a mystery, the word nervous, and this poem captures that, and tells the reader that it is a mystery. This poem is actually very impressing to me, good job.
