I am just a robot1
Moving through life2
Typing without thought3
Mechanical and logical4
Living without heart5
Every day passes me by6
And life goes on7
Why am I still alive8
Living without thought9
Why do I go on10
Without any reason11
Why does it not end12
If I can not feel13
My life is empty14
My mind is empty15
My heart is empty16
So what is the point17
Why am I still here?18
If I must live19
Why can't I be happy?20
If I can't die21
Why do all the good things22
Last only a short while23
And the emptiness return?24
I can not escape it25
It's futile to try 26
The world is oppressive27
And I am just a small part28
Insignificant to all29
I am just here30
Waiting31
For death

wow this cuts deep. this poem is very depressing, but a good depressing. the kind that makes you ask the question "why?"
very very good job
snaps and good luck! Alyana -
Very sharp emotions. Very depressive. Simple words of the poem hits home hard. Coincidentally, I have a story named Empty, too. But it's in a completely different dimension. Keep Writing!

the poem is good in meaning I can relate...that's my past but still....not the point at all but it's very repeative...My life is empty14
My mind is empty15
My heart is empty16
...like I said good but the fact that you repeat things so much takes away from it
