Those words

Great words of a teacher for a battle!

Unsure I wake up every day,

My mind filled with thoughts,

Right or wrong I don't know,

Carrying the burden of fear on my shoulders,

Neither hatred nor love,

Jealous that people are happier,

That I am not,

But I love myself too much to be them,

I don't know what this feeling is,

I'm not right,

Something is left behind,

Those words, that I need to move,

I go back,

Carry those words, 

Of happiness and surety,

Gifted by my teachers

I think you are very young to worry so much about these things. You seem very mature for 13 going on 14.
It's great to draw strength from the teachings and advice if others but life itself is full of lessons which you will learn and grow from on your own. Good writing, keep it up.

Well, I need to change that 14 to 15! I myself realized yesterday! I'm such a bhuddu! All these days I was thinking I was 13! Lol.
Don't know, just don't know, put up everything that is on my mind and heart! I don't worry but I love the way these are! The best of mine is deep and dark ones! Was planning a poem for teachers' day and somehow this came up! Lol.

Thank You! :)

I get you girl. I completely get you. I feel adolescence is one of the most difficult stages of life. Lot of self exploring going on and emotions can drive you crazy. But I can feel your words and I appreciate how you put them in this poem. Also it reminds me of one of my teachers who has been a role model and a friend at the same time. So thank you for sharing :D

[Rainslover]

Thanks! Yeah, all those emotions make me write! And once I write I feel at peace! There's one such for me- not a friend, but a good guide! Physics teacher! Physics and philosophy. Lol.

Very interesting, years ago I trained in tae kwon do and had an instructor who always said there are two kinds of fear, one makes you weak and out of control, the other makes you focused so your faster and stronger.
Critique time: in the second line you don't need to have the first WITH (My mind filled with thoughts, Right or wrong I don't know)
In the forth line you say (Carrying a burden of fear on my shoulders) question: is it one fear or one of many fears? (Carrying the burden of fear on my shoulders)
Second line in the second stanza it should be in the singular so your Jealous not Jealousy

I like the idea of searching within, to know and like your self well enough that you need not compete. Emotionally open without being vulnerable, understanding your self well enough that you can learn and face obligations and receive a teachers gift (wisdom)

Thank You!
Thanks again, I'll change them!
I was penning down for teacher's day and somehow this came up!
