Old Poem..

A Poem by Melinda
"

I wrote this poem in 8th grade. It's actually 2 pages long on Microsoft Word. I just found this today, I figured I'd post it

"

Ive always Been Selfish

Sometimes Even Mean

It Never Occurred To me

How Bad, I Did seem

 

Until I looked in the mirror

And Saw Someone Else

I knew I Was Heading

Straight For Hell.

 

So I stopped all those things

Heck, Lost a few friends

but i knew id be happy

With Myself in The End

 

I met Some people

who wouldn't leave me behind

I made decisions for my self

that were 100% mine

 

No Girl, Nor Guy

controlled what i did

My bad side is hidden

Sealed tight With a lid.

 

Ive been good so far.

But what did i get.

Drama with friends

tears soaking my bed,

pillow  soaking wet

 

Life is a roller coaster

I know that so far

but its all been downhill

numerous wishes on that star

 

none have come true

i want to go up

on this roller coaster

Ive just had enough

 

i don't want to be used

don't want to be played

sometimes i wish

things would have just stayed

 

I have not laughed

for real in a while

i just want

a reason to smile

 

Ive forgotten prince charming

and took what i could get

but being with them

i really don't regret

 

but they broke my heart

took away my smile

the brought me down

and i didn't get up for a while

 

Ive set my goals

my heart is set

Ill wait for that prince charming

to come on that horse

let that roller coaster go

continue its course.
