(Cliché High School Poetry Corner: When I type these up from old diaries, the sound of my snickering at their terribleness can be heard for miles)
I am so different
banned
from a best friend
banned
from a shopping mall Hell
banned from living a
life unknown to
myself
because
I havent
lived it.
I miss those not around me
I hate those
surrounding me
I want to get
out
I need to get out
I will spontanisly
combust
In a matter of
Lowest commen denomiters
Its unfair
to me
Locked up in a
Pitch black hell hole
never to see daylight
a beautiful mole
afraid of the day
pale as a ghost
I feel like a
ghost
I am a ghost to some
I am a vampire
and I sleep in a coffin
I live in a morgue
In a dark & cold
suicide chamber
unfair to
others who do not know
this unfortunate anger
