My pillow hears when I cry, 

My pillow hears when I scream, 

My pillow sees me when I dream.

 

My pillow hears when I get grounded, 

My pillow hears when I get neglected..

 

I cry in my pillow, 

I want to die in my pillow, 

I punch my pillow, 

I have lunch on my pillow...

 

I hug my pillow, 

I talk crap with my pillow, 

I sit with my pillow....

 

Me and my pillow sing, 

Me and my pillow are king, 

Me and my pillow tussle, 

Me and my pillow have muscle.....

 

Me and my pillow get cold, 

Me and my pillow get old, 

Me and my pillow are rejects......

 

But on my pillow you will see this note, 

I have something to promote, 

This was provoked, 

And I remember when you all joked.......

 

Now it's not a joke,  

But it's all good, 

God understood........


The author's comments:

This poem has some truth to it but also some goofiness. The point of the poem was to show that at the home I used to live with my Mom, Step Dad, half Sister, and half Brother I felt alone. I would isolate myself in the room and they didn't care if I was okay or not and would be mad because I would never come out.   But that is the funny part of it but also the part that shows that even if I did no one would know because no one cared. The ending was to show that if I did end myself and leave the note on my pillow then they would realize. So yes it is a goofy poem because it is my first poem but it does have meaning to it and about half the things in that poem are true. But the other half is funny and has a meaning to it. So I hope you like this poem if you do please leave a like and a vote, thank you!
