How Low Can Someone Go?

by Just Lucy   Jun 7, 2007


I'm kind of just sick of everything,
Sick of what they all say,
I just want to feel like me again,
I want the pain to go away.

I want to live my life in the present,
Not have to suffer with the past,
Just to move on with my life,
I want a smile that will last.

I want to actually be happy,
Instead of just pretending to be,
I need to let go of what was,
Will that set me free?

Will I ever get over this?
Its been four years and still I dwell,
Every time I close my eyes,
I see a reenactment of my hell.

Just because he got desperate,
Now means my life goes down,
And it hurts to know that he can still laugh,
While I'm stuck with a permanent frown.

Sick of being teased about it,
How low can someone go?
To actually tease a r a p e victim,
Always judged like I'm on show.

I may feel pathetic about myself,
But I will never be as bad...
As those who laugh at victims,
There existence is surely sad!

    Wow that was so great. The vocabulary was simple, but the message was clear, and it was so deep and emotional, and flowed perfectly. Perfect poem, I would say : )
