Depressed

I'm too stressed but they say I'm depressed. Everyone looks at me and stares. No one even cares. I want to get away from here. Which way do I steer? Why are people cruel? Good thing I'm almost out of school. My words are jumbled. My whole world has crumbled.

Well expressed write. Although I must say people will always be people, Stay clear of those ones that hurt you and forgive them as well. Easier said than done I know, your world will be okay soon my dear.

Writing helps me a lot, especially since I can't find the right words to say so I just write it out. Thanks BG for the comment and for the words.

In this poem, I can vividly draw a picture of the character showing deep emotions, certainly intense. This is nice indeed! :) If this is based on your personal story, I will say to you there are many people who really care, and much more, love. Thanks for sharing your poem! God bless.

Thanks for the comment, I know people care but sometimes it feels like they don't.
