The Alphabetof Me

Alone and afraid is where I stand
Because nobody ever gave me a helping hand
Causing all this emotional stress
Don't you wish it would all just digress
Everything seems so depressing
Feeling abandoned and always stressing
Getting your hopes up just to get them crushed
How I love how things are so rushed
I knew life wasn't going to be easy
Just a dream though, how queasy
Kind of wish things were brighter
Like in the sense of life being lighter
More positive and brilliant
Not as negative and resilient
Of course that is just how life goes
Plenty of cons and plenty of pros
Quite sad if you think about it as a whole
Really try to dig down deep in your soul
So now I guess I'll keep on being me
Till someone decides to just flee
Understand the importance of this suttle claim
Versatile is currently my middle name
Would you ever guess how much I strain
Xenial is how I will remain
You should stay calm and know
Zealous is the way to go

This is an awesome ABC form.. Jenna, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
