Happy birthday to me

Happy birthday to me
i guess its just another year
another 365 days
that im still living here

people around me
laughing and smiling
celebrating my happy day
while i sit there crying

they look right through me
they cant see the tears
i guess they faded
over the 15 years

time to sing happy birthday
we gather round the cake
the voices fade around me
im lost in what wish to make

i close my eyes
blow out the candle lights
i hope my wish comes true:
that i wont cry myself to sleep tonight

my cake looks so nice
i dont think theres any cake greater
pink swirls and butterflys
to bad, ill just throw it up later

i walkoutside
and sit on the swing
ill stay here till dark
and mum calls me in

so happy birthday to me
i guess its just another year
its just another painful day
that i dont want to be here...

    Aw, wow! I wrote a poem once just like this. It was my 17th birthday, and it felt like the worst day of my life. I ended up staying home eating a chocolate cake all by myself in my bed. It was terrible.

    Even though I don't know who you are, I hope everything's okay. I know what it feels like for it to be your birthday and you're just still upset & stuff. If you ever need to talk, feel free to PM me. :]

    Keep up the good writing though! I liked this poem alot, mainly cos I can relate. 5/5
