This is a poem I wrote a while back...maybe some of you might relate to it alittle.
 
Thoughts In The Mind Of A Crazy Girl

Why am I like this
what happened to me?
I feel like I've died
but I know it can't be

My body's alive
but my spirit is dead
I can never escape
these thoughts in my head

One minute I'm happy
with energy like a flame
the next, I'm depressed
with hurt I can't contain

I sit her and dream
of the day I'll be free
free from the hell
that completley surrounds me

I feel like my life has ended
but I know that it's just begun
college is just around the corner
time for the life that I've longed

The start of a new life,
another chapter in my book
I'll leave the past behind
and not give it a second look

I've been hurt too much before
but I have to forgive and move on
this anger inside can't last
so this shall be a new dawn

But until I get
to that point in my life
I need to be strong,
I need to survive

I can't get consumed
by these feelings I have left,
it will only lead me...
to a very cold death.
