Poetry / Absent
This endless pain forever tearing at my heart
These endless days never seem to never start
I’ve got nothing to live for and no reason to die
Always hating the world with its endless plights
Rage consumes my heart and forces the hate from my chest
Released upon an unsuspecting world
This fury wind carries such great power
A foreshadow of the worlds impending doom
The flames disappear along with everyones dreams
To be scattered across the expanse of nothingness
Crushed dreams and shattered hopes are all around
Nothing can save us from hitting the ground
Without hope and absent of dreams is how we’ll be
Wandering direction less and aimlessly
Our thoughts are jumbled and our minds are blank
Black nothingness surrounding a sea of hate

Ok. This might sound harsh. As a group, teenaged people have a certain profile when it comes to poetry. You have embodied it in this piece. I do not try to belittle your feelings or convictions, only a warning. If you want your point to get to people, to make people think, you have to find a new, fresh way of saying it. Otherwise, people will judge it before they even give you a chance.
The last line of the piece is a cliche phrase, expanses of nothingness, hoplessness, endless pain, the word plight, doom. All cliches. Also, for a heads up, other typical teen-angst poetry will include desolation, soulmate and refrences to the devil. You’re better than this, you just have to make yourself not give into this. It’s too easy. Challenge yourself.
Good luck.
Love, love.
