Lifes Pressures Poem by Toni Brwn

Lifes Pressures



when i face the world
on goes the brave face
even when im at home
it is impossible to relax
to fit in with my family
a fit in with this town
my head is running in circles
trying to keep up with life.
to try and survive in this world
is a task on its own
chuck in highschool
it only gets worse
the pressure to be thin
pimple-free and perfect
to look like the models
and never be different
to be smart, and all the above
whilst maintaining a job and having a life
is almost the impossible
how do they do it?
how do they live?
the pressure is too much
i want to breakfree
get out of this stupid town
out of this world
out of this pressure
out of the world gleaming eyes
and into heaven
