Fire

Inside my heart is a fire
that i can't burn out even if I try
my hardest

Staying up all night hiding behind
walls
can't stop the fighting even if I try so
hard that it hurts me

Can't believe this is happening
to me
wishing it's all a dream in my head
and will go away when I open my eyes

Thinking it's alright but it's all a lie
wish I had it all and had everything back

Want my life to be amazing
and a life I will never forget until
I die
but no

It has to be worse than I thought
it would be
some days are like fairy tails but most
are horrible and miserable

so called 'parents' telling me what to do
with my life and what I will never be able
to do

Why can't my life be normal? why can't I have
normal parents
instead of just fighting and going crazy with every
little move

Can anybody understand me? what we are going through?
Or what I want? Of course not
nobody does and nobody will

I want this fire to burn out and that is
all I ask and that's all I want

great poem, first of all. i love seeing you get better and better with each one that you write.
but just so you know, your chance at an amazing life is not completely gone. :) i hate to reference miley cyrus but she was right in saying that the climb to the top is the most important part of your journey. being an artist whether you are a musician, a writer, a dancer...etc. is about fighting for your passion as well as following your heart and your dreams. the more difficult your climb to the top is, the sweeter your success will be. :) it would mean nothing if you were handed your rewards on a silver plater. and just so you know, a normal life would be no fun. and no one has normal parents.... your actually lucky that you don't or you'd be grounded for life. lol!

Hard to feel happiness when people are fighting and not content. I had to escape my home at eighteen to find peace. I try not to lose my temper. A wise person learn from the mistakes of others. Keep the fire burning. Better to smile and walk away from the confusion. Thank you for the excellent poem.
