All of Junior Year

Nicky Byrd

Lowering my standards just to feel something in me

Had it in my hands but nothing felt to fit me

Now im changing up the system making it more fair

Girl you look so perfect can't help it but to stare

What would be a world if you lived without a care

Stomach always full but you still feelin empty

Would you end it all just cause days been feeling tricky?

 

From Mrs. V “You have potential”

Wouldn't that be nice

Living feeling happy instead of a heart filled with ice

Now I'm on the line fill my soul with all these lies

Writing all these words meant for one pair of eyes

Wonder if you read it or i'm writing them for no one

Just give me a sign i can't help cutting these lines

Can't help writing these lines

But you still give me time

Or maybe when I dream of us your onto the next guy

 

I've given you my energy 

I wont heal, my stab wounds bleed

Through all the pain and suffering

My stolen souls, still come to me

 

I've given you my energy 

I wont heal, my stab wounds bleed

From all the pain and suffering

My stolen souls, succumb to me

  • Comment from author about the poem: This poem was written about my junior year in high school. At this point in my life my mental health was at its lowest and I didn't know what made me happy until I started to write. I felt like I was able to share how I was feeling everyday without saying it directly.
