When will my life be alright?

It’s hard to forget pain
When it’s constantly on my brain
Everyday I tear another salty drop
Every night I dream of nightmares
Praying for painful unhappiness to go away
Whats the point of being happy,
When someone in your life,
Is just gonna make you miserable once again?
I can't get you off from my head
Inside my brain you control my strange emotions from being you
I can't even walk without bumping into someone
Because I always look down with a frown
I don't know where I'm going with my miserable life
I'm going nowhere fast
Tired of my same feelings, I want to feel numb
I want to get away from here
I keep hitting my head on my couch
Since my wall is already bloody.

This is a very powerful piece. At times I have felt the same exact way but right now I am learning that this is my life and I control it. There are people in this world who try to make me miserable but Im trying to ignore what they say because I know it isnt true. You expressed your feelings very well and i can sense the emotion.

I know exactly what you mean in this poem. Emotional attachments are never worth it for the most part.

One foot step in front of the other. Each foot brings a length of time, each minute passing leads to a new corner. Each corner takes you one step further from the past and one step closer to new possibilities. It's those possibilities that hold the golden egg we all look for. The trick is convincing ourselves that we must continue walking around new corners in our lives.
While numbness would be nice and is sometimes the result of large quantities of trauma, it never really manifests in overcoming affairs of the heart. There will always be memories, one's that make us walk along the edges of the past, and others that make us remember why we need to keep moving forward. We as humans will always be the sum total of our experiences whether they are good or bad. The process makes us who we are and without our individuality, what else is there?
What this piece leaves me with is asking, where is the individual who wants change? Find her and you find a better road to walk on.

Just my opinions of course. :)
Nice poetry!

Strong emotion and powerful statements made the poem a pleasure to read. No weakness in this poem.
"Every night I dream of nightmares
Praying for painful unhappiness to go away
Whats the point of being happy,
When someone in your life,"
I like the ending to this outstanding poem.
