موشي موشي
I brought you here some poems I loved that I read in a book called
Chicken Soup For The Teenage Soul on Tough Stuff
I know the name is kinda long.. hehe
there you go
Another Statistic
I don't want to be another statistic
Some suicidal teen
Who makes a choice to kill herself
When the world just seems too mean
She can't go on with life
Or so to her it seems
Reality has fallen short
And so have her many dreams
I don't want to be another statistic
Some kid strung out on crack
Who started at a party
And now he can't turn back
First cigarettes and alcohol
Now meth, crack and cocaine
He's been smoking it so long
That now he's gone insane
I don't want to be another statistic
Some kid out of school
Who dropped out really early
And was acting like a fool
He thought that it was boring
He thought that it was dumb
He doesn't have an education
But lives on the street like a bum
I don't want to be another statistic
Some stereotypical teen
I'm gonna make a difference
I'll finish with my dream
Learning from My Past
As the days pass slowly
And the weeks creep by
I find myself obsessing
About ways that I could die
I lay awake at night
Thinking of my pain
There's no way it can get better
I have nothing left to gain
Suddenly thoughts of death
Are controlling my every move
And every battle with my mind
I always seem to lose
I no longer want to be around
The people that I love
All that I can think of
Is what's waiting above
I cut my hands with rozar blades
To dull the pain inside
But that can only last so long
I don't want to be alive
I manage to keep my composure
When people are around
They wouldn't understand me
So I don't make a sound
I smile When I have to
I break down when I don't
I know I should be strong
But I also know I wont
So I make a plan to take some pills
It souldn't take too long
I write out notes to all my friends
To read when I'm gone
I ask my mom to understand
That life is just too hard
My mind can't fight it anymore
My heart is far too scarred
I plan it out so perfectly
I even set the date
I'm pretty sure I'm ready
I know this is my fate
My bed is made up neatly
As I take them one by one
I start to feel alittle scared
I know I'm almost done
All that I can think about
Is how I'm letting go
And how much I love my family
I really hope they know
My eyes are getting heavy
My body feels so weak
Everything inside is numb
That's the way it has to be
I'm glad that mom's not here right now
To watch me slowly die
But still I wish that I could say
"I love you and good-bye"
I give in to the darkness
I slowly slip away
I hope I go to heaven
Where dark nights turn to day
I wake up in confusion
I don't know where I am
Is this heaven or is it hell
The land of the eternally damned?
There are people all around
Although I can barely see
I can hear the soothing voices
Of people dear to me
My family and friends are here
Comforting one another
I can hardly make out any words
Until I hear my mother
Eash tear she cries feels like a knife
stabbing at my soul
I let my pain and suffering
Blind me from my goal
At one point I was determined
To make it through this test
To lead a life of fullfillment
And to do my very best
But I somehow lost all sight of that
I hope she can forgive
I promise not to waste
My second chance to live
I sit up in my hospital bed
Tears streaming down my cheeks
My mother rushes over crying
Like she hasn't seen me in weeks
I tell her that I'm sorry
For causing her so much strife
I tell her that I will succeed
In leading a better life
Together we figured out a way
For me to get some help
I know now that I can go to her
Instead of doing it by myself
I know that it's not over yet
It's a long road up a head
But I appreciate the little things
Because I could be dead
I've learned to live each passing day
As if it were my last
I look forward to the future
And I'm learning from my past
Again
If when you wake up in the morning
And the hurting is so great
You don't want to get out of bed
And face a world of hate
If everything in life goes wrong
And nothing you do seems right
You just try alittle harder
and soon you'll see the light
For every person who has put you down
And filled your life with pain
You must strive to achieve greatness
And show them you can win
For every disappointment
For the times you are let down
There will be a better moment
And your life will turn around
Because everyone feels heartache
And everyone feels pain
But only those who have true courage
Can get up and try again
Have You Ever
Have you ever lived my life?
Spent one minute in my shoes?
If you haven't then tell me why
You judge me as you do
Have you ever woken up in the morning
wondering if this was your last day on Earth?
Have you ever left your house
Unsure if you'd return?
Have you ever seen your friend get shot
Outside his favourite store?
Have you ever seen a friend die
From drugs he'd never used before?
Have you ever considered suicide
As the only way?
Have you ever tried to hide yourself
Behind the things you say?
Have you ever wanted to protect
Your friends and everyone in sight?
Have you ever felt such pain
That you cried yourself to sleep at night?
Have you ever lived my life
Spent one minute in my shoes?
If you haven't then tell me why
You judge me as you do
That's all for today.. I'll write you some more another time..
I hope you liked them..
please tell me which one you liked the most..
Hope you have a good day
و
سلامـــــــــــــــــــــ ـــو..،
