My Hellish Nightmare Poem by Michelle Dickson

Many people around me
Keep pushing me
To be someone im not
They try to mold me
To be something im not

Get good grades
Never drink its bad
Don’t hang out with this person
All these things
Are just some of the things
That I have to do

Be like your sister
Run faster
Get skinner
This never ending cycle
Of yelling and screaming
Pushing and shoving
Are driving me insane

This hell I live in
This hell I loath
Is something I wish not
Even on the ugliest of trolls

Please help me
See me for who I am
Please help me understand
As to why I am this way
As to why they do this to me
As to why I still live and breathe
Please help me
Find a way out of this hell
