Everyday kids make me sad
I'm not popular, I'm flat out hated
But for me this fate god has created
I'm the butt of jokes, always teased
They never let me rest at peace
I'm only ten and I hate my life
I want to end it with a knife
It's not like anyone would even care
Even the way my parents act is unfair
I have no friends, I'm not loved
Everyday I'm always shoved
I want to fight back, I'm too weak
I barely have the nerve to speak
I go home with cuts and a bruise
If I fall to the floor I'm told to move
My parents yell, hit, and slap
I have the evidence on my back
They don't give me a hug, not even a kiss
And everyday I live through this
It's not like it matters, I don't exist
It doesn't matter if I get p**t
So why should I stay where I'm not wanted
All those ugly words are always haunted
Today at lunch I was hit with food
As I stood up I was continuously boohd
I ran out of the room, started to cry
I had felt like I could die
I ran away, found a place I hid
I pulled out the gun, believe me, I did
Put it to my head, pulled the trigger
My self confidence hadn't grown bigger
Now I'm dead, blood splattered on the wall
Fifteen minutes later my parents get a call
My mother screamed, my father cried
They didn't know I wanted to die
It's funny that now they'll give attention
And it's now that they show affection
The kids are school are completely shocked
They don't know I hear the words they talk
Yet no one is crying, it seems they don't care
I guess my choice was justified and fair
I can't say I'm happier, yet I'm not sad
My life on earth had become so bad
Now I burn in Hell as time has no end
Even Diablo won't be my friend
It seems in torture he takes his pleasure
Why my soul does he not treasure
Why did god create me like this
How many others are on this list
I got a chance to look at it, I'm the only one
No one else's character fits, I shouldn't have been a son
Hell is dark with fire, red and hot
No matter what you won't reach the top
Maybe I was a mistake and shouldn't have been born
The teachers', students', and parents' hearts aren't torn
Then I wake up in the morning, it was all a dream
My parents come in wondering why I screamed
They gave me a hug, my mother a kiss
They couldn't believe I had dreamt of this
I went to school, everyone said hi
I instantly knew the dream was a lie
I went on with my day in a much happier mood
At lunch we started a food fight, no one was boohd
When I went home, I slept on my bed
In my dream I remember all words said
And I can't help it, I begin to smile
Just knowing I'll be on earth for awhile. [comments] => 5 [counter] => 153 [topic] => 13 [informant] => CuttersAngel [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

This is a very interesting write! I liked the way you shaped it!! I can also relate to this in some manner but not wholly. If you get time check out my poem "A Child's Wish Comes True". I am sure you will appreciate it.

Merry Christmas,

Zee

An interesting twist to the end. I enjoyed this and have to admit, I did get a little misty eyed. A very good write.
