It's All Me Poem by Ehsan Iqbal

It's All Me



Why does the world stand in my way
Not just nights anymore, now even in the day
Guess nobody really wants me to stay
So I'll just let myself drift away

I try to not be sad all the time
Please tell me, is that really a crime?
Since every time I try to rhyme
People make me feel like I'm

Just a worthless pathetic fool
Like I'm the one that's really cruel
Like everyone except me is cool
That me being upset is a vital rule

Every time I try to improve my own mood
I'm the one to whom everyone's rude
I'm the one who's destiny is to be screwed
And in my happiness someone has to intrude

Or wait, is it really the whole world?
Was I really the one being hurled?
Was it actually my world being whirled?
On my world the snake was curled

Or was I the one to have fought myself?
To this brink I have brought myself
On the edge I have caught myself
As a superhero I really thought of myself

In reality I was just destroying everyone's life
But mine was already gone so I'mma reach out to the knife
Guess that about me everyone's been right
Guess I just need to use it on myself and just smite

It had never been the world now had it
I just kept thinking that I had it
Kept thinking I could defy my own fate
But nothing's going to change, now it's too late

Made the mistake to think I was deserving
With that hope I was never deserting
But now the last string has finally broken
Guess fate has finally openly spoken

Just hopin' I make some mistake now
Funny how I had never made a vow
Now just gonna wait for my last breath
Cause now I actually need my death

At least I won't have to suffer anywhere
And nobody in the world will have my burden to bear
It's all I am now, just worthless burden
Just hope that my death is certain

Haven't got a purpose to carry on
Everything I stood for has finally gone
Only got myself to blame about it
But got everyone else to shout it

Hah, guess they'll laugh at this too
Then again, I always knew
After all that's been thrown at me
How exactly can I not see?

Now I see why I'm so alone
Now that true faces have been shown
Now that true opinions have been thrown
Now that every one of my feelings has been blown

Guess I won't try to cheer myself up
Isn't that what you've wanted so far?
Now that you gave me a closeup
Now that you've finally given me this scar

Hope you're happy now that your wish is granted
Now that all of your seeds have been planted
Now that you and everyone else has ranted
Finally my whole world's been disenchanted.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I was VERY depressed and was weeping, and I wanted to express my feelings. What better way to do it than write a poem?
