"It's not what they call you, it's what you answer to."


If i had a place to go, I'd flee
because no one can live my life
everyone thinks they know me
but they don't know my pain and strife

Welcome to the world of rejection
see the weariness in your eyes
as you grow to loathe your own reflection
you don't know what else to do but cry

I know that mother loves me
the best as she can
but no matter how hard she tries
she'll never understand

i fold my hnds and pray
that i'll have an excellent day
but it's like im disappearing
because the angels never hear me

One angle might
so i'll take that opportunity
i know i'll be fine
if she'd guide me through the night

so i've packed my heart and possessions
hoping it'll be enough
and with Grandma's Angel by my side
i know i'll be all right

as i run vigorous and aimlessly through the night

This poem is very good. It flows nicely. I hope you keep writing poems that are as good as this.
