societal anarchy

its only natural my dear

they all left me

because no one wants to be friends with someone like me

and i end up just like before sad and lonely

im just a pessimist among a broken society

replaying the same broken record repeating "it will get better"

but it never does

but for some reason when the sun can break through

the infinite storm clouds, i believe them

they lie through their teeth and say i'm the first step

so i pick up a cane a attempt running a marathon

despite my broken bones, and it all just hurts worse

and i keep falling,

and because its all a competition, they run over me

they all want their 15 minutes of fame 

only caring about the smile on their parents face,

the trophy only good for being a reminder

they dont care that im bleeding.

but it isn't their fault

its only the new norm

we can't blame them

it's just the way we have become

theres no changing for a society whose so out of energy

there i go again, blaming society on my peers and i

but even society itself blames society

so who really takes responsibility?

FIN

Author's Note

its 10:13 pm and i keep rubbing my already pink eyes trying to avoid crying myself asleep again. i really hate grammar and punctuation and capital letters.

well written - it sounds like someone who is friendless and unhappy

"but for some reason when the sun can break through

the infinite storm clouds, i believe them" - my favourite line in this poem

Pick your head up! It's called being a realist and that means that you are smart. I too have the same issues, but I just let it be. I loved your words!
