A Mind of My Own

by Mezmeryz   Feb 25, 2007


The place I call home is just a house
Somewhere I have to spend beginning of my life
Till I move out
The place where I live on the edge of a knife
Where there's no such thing as forgive and forget
Instead of trust I get doubt
I hate my self more and more
I know they hate me and my words may bring pain
But they don't seem to see that my heart's gone sore
The idiocy of it all is so plain
They don't want me, I just exist
Into the wall I want to thrust my fist
What's the point of having this life?
When I could have never existed
And never been such a burden
For every little movement they have to complain
I try not to talk, try my best to refrain
There's no f**king freedom, I'm treated like a slave
I'm holding on so no-one can see the strain
I can't have friends,
There's no such thing as socialising
But that's where my mind bends
Because if there's no happiness indoors, outdoors it will be
I'm not taking your shit anymore; no-one's stopping me
I know you'll keep trying
But I have a mind of my own, a life of my own
I've made my friends my life
I'm an existence of my own, and my heart has now grown
They out there, don't even know
How much they mean to me, how much I love them so
How high I hold their place within my heart and my life
No-one will ever stop me, for their happiness I will always strive
And when my time is up, I'll do that something special
I'll dedicate my last few moment to those that I loved
That loved me too;
My friends.

    Wow when I first started reading this I thought that is should be put under a different category but I was dead wrong. If this isnt a tribute to a friend then I dont know what is.. its true they are there to help us even when we dont know we need the help. wonderful write. The only critique I have is I agree you should hit enter after the stanza and I also feel that you should add a period or a comma after a few lines. Nice work though.

    So cool and realted with feelings but i advise you something
    If you hit enter after every stanza,it would be easier to read
    other than that,so beatifully penned

    A very powerful piece
    I think every teenager and even older can relate to this. The feeling of claustraphobia and being trapped in a house you can't call home is horrible.
    Been there =)
    Excellent emotion used
    5/5
