My Deep Pain

Not too long ago I was suicidal
it took over my life and acted like my idol.
What I wish that you could see is that this life is not a blessing to me.

It helped with all the decisions I make
it even chose the path that I would take.
But let’s talk about now.
I am depressed and it’s a deep pain inside of my chest.
I try to run and hide but I know it will always stick by my side.

If someone held a gun to your head
I would beg them to take my life instead.
Because deep inside I scream and yell because this life is hell.

They say in the end it will be just fine
but im still burning deep inside.
I never had a dad now you may think that’s sad
but it’s okay because I’m still living here to this day.
I really wish the world was different, maybe just the way I picture it.
I hate living in pain and fear and every now and then shed a tear.

I just want to be alone all by myself at home.
I used to get on my knees begging to god please,
answer my prayers , he hasn’t answered my prayers
I’m starting to think he might not even be there.

I go to school and you treat me like im nothing,
but when I grow up I intend to be something.

  I write my pain on this paper its so hot it turns into vapor.
  But you could never appeal to the way I feel
sometimes the pain go’s strait to my brain.
I always put a smile on my face,
but to me it’s just a disgrace.

What I really want you to see is that there isn’t a one way this has to be.

I was inspired to write this piece because of events that have taken place in my life. I hope that readers find hope in what I have written, and if they are going through some of the same things they can know that they are not alone.

Its put together well, you know what they say... you can beat a demon until you identify the demon. One slight issue, there are two typos that i discovered.
Line: "sometimes the pain go's strait to my head"
Should be "sometimes the pain goes straight to my head"
Usually this isn't a big issue and it still isn't but, when and if you ever get your work published, checking for errors plays a big part in the process of finalization. Like I said before, little buddy, it is still a great piece.

This is good. Poetry is such a great way of expressing everything what's going on inside. This is good It may seem tough right now but keep hanging on. There's so much more of your life ahead of you and God does answer prayers. Sometimes it's not what we want to hear but he knows what's best for us. He knows what we need. Hang in there kid. and keep writing you can reach many who feel the same way you do
