On The Edge Of Breaking Down

by jello   Jul 25, 2005


Jump into the pool filled with water
Swim in the deep end attempting to drown
Hold in the tears by pushing them down
Taking in my surroundings like this will be the last time

Cunning and bright is what I am
Dumb and stupid is what they see
They thought they had me figured out

They were wrong
They didn’t know the first thing about me
And I don’t think they cared

All everyone ever does is misjudge
Everyone who seems the least bit different
Apparently they were “perfect”
Apparently they were wrong

They pushed me to the edge of breaking down
I’m holding on by just one string
Everyone’s so clueless
Can’t they see the sadness in my eyes?

I’d give anything to feel loved
I’d give anything not to feel alone
I’ll dream of better days when
Everything will seem alright

No more tears
No more need to wipe my eyes
All I need is someone’s shoulder to cry on
Someone I can talk to

Nothing seems alright
It seems like it will always be like this
That the sun will never shine
I’ll always be in the dark

I can’t get rid of this pain
I don’t know how to
I don’t know how to make
People understand what I’m going thru

So to get rid of it all I’ll
Jump into a pool filled with water
Swim in the deep end attempting to drown
Hold in the tears by pushing them down

Taking in my surroundings like this will be the last time
To kill myself would seem so sweet
I’d hate to live an eternity in this place
To have to deal with all my problems

Knowing they’ll never go away
Maybe if I pray
It will get better
Maybe I’ll be able to forget

*This has some familiar feelings of mine in it…I hope you like this. It took me a while to finish the whole thing. I really like this one so PLEASE vote and comment on it if you like it. You have no idea how hard I work on these. Any hard core poem writer would know. I put all my heart and soul into my poems. Every feeling I’ve ever felt. My everything…you know it’s kind of funny I’ll post my poems here but then I don’t like my friends or family to see them…I don’t know it’s weird because well…it’s not like you know me so you can’t judge me or anything. I guess I can trust people I don’t know strangely anof. It’s just easier not knowing people I guess. No matter how stupid that sounds. But just please vote and stuff. I love you all*
