Take Me Away

by WritingtheStars   Mar 27, 2013


At home all I hear is yelling.
At school all I hear is insults.
In my head all I hear is criticisms.
Can I get a break?

I'm miserble everywhere i go,
no matter who I'm with.
My friends cause me grief
and my family is down-right dreadful.

Can you come swoop me away?
You can take me wherever,
as long as it's far away
from here.

Take me away to a peaceful place
where no one will resent me
and wish me dead.
Take me to a place I will be happy.

Can you take me to a place
with decent people?
Maybe I'll actually get more than one friend
while I'm there.

That's all I can think of now.
It's what I dream about at night.
It's my dearest wish
For someone, anyone, to take me away.

    Wow Killian, this is wow. I am sure lots of people can relate to this, but you know you always have me, right? You'll be okay and you'll get through this, though yes for the time being this is a great piece. There is a lot of emotion and skill. I like the way your voice shines and how strong your style is. School is hard, I know it is, especially when nobody sees the real you or understands just how amazing you are and can be. Hun, its a great piece. I like the simple word choice, I like the emotion here. I like the ease of the flow and how simple it is. Definately one of your best pieces, but by far not the happiest :P come on, you know this will pass and you'll be okay.

    I reaallllly liked this. I know how you feel. I always feel sad too. people suck. It's hard to find decent people since most people are jerks. i dont like going to school either. I always feel like people are laughing at me. their probably not but i constantly feel like they are. I wish there was a portal that could take everyone to their own individual world . a world where they can go to escape the stupidity of this one. it could be a world filled with whatever you want it . things could happen however you want them to happen .too bad it wont ever happen ;(
    try to stay strong. listening to music helps me .i about 90% of the day have my headphones in listening to music. or something watch my favorite show Pretty Little Liars.
