I am suffocating
and I just need to breath
I'm smothered under presure
I must be relieved.

Nothing I do is right
Nothing they say is fair
I cry and scream and through a fit
But no one seems to care.

Nobody will listen
To what I have to say
My life is not important
Yet I'm living everyday

I can't do what I want
I can't stay out late
Here I sit and write this poem
To release my pain and hate.

I'm confused and I'm alone
I'm lost inside my mind
No one will search beyond my looks
To see what they might find.

So many thoughts confuse me
Feelings I can't perceive
In this time of adolescence
and I just need to leave.

None of it makes sense
None of this seems real
and no one understands
The emotions that I feel.

I'm still suffocating
and I still need to breath
I'm smothered under feelings
So let me be relieved!
