why

Location

Hey

Listen up

Because there are some things

I’ve got to get

Off my chest so

Sit back, relax.

I hate the way I can’t seem to stand up

For myself.

I let people push me

Around.

Walk all over me.

Why

I hate that I’m broke and college

Costs so much for what seems like

So little.

Why

I hate that I cry myself to sleep

At night.

Every night.

Because the monsters In my head tell me to

Kill myself.

I’m no good.

Pathetic.

Every day I struggle

Just to get out of bed.

Why

Why me.

This poem is about: 
Me
My country
Our world

this brilliant in the little amount that is this poem you become invested and that shows how brilliant of a writer you are. my only criticism is that where you split up your stanzas can hurt the flow of the poem a little.
