My last breath, I do proclaim

They mock me.1

They look at me with judging eyes.2

My every move providing them with childish entertainment.3

Everything I say, feeding their cruel minds.4

I'm bringing this upon myself.5

For if I leave.6

Never to return.7

The torment that has brought me such pain, would cease forever.8

I've changed schools.9

Changed towns.10

Wherever I go.11

Whatever I do.12

They mock.13

They judge.14

My mind is limited.15

I am young.16

The only way out.17

My only silver lining.18

My father's friend.19

That protector hiding in his study draw.20

Never am I to touch without consequence.21

But if that protector doth bring my end.22

No consequence need be served.23

Never have I been accepted.24

Never have I been loved.25

Never have I experienced friendship.26

My family brands me failure.27

My peers torment me so.28

For tears lay me to sleep each night.29

Not my mother, nor my father.30

But the salty warmth of my pain showed liquid.31

For years I sit alone.32

Waiting for someone to find me.33

Waiting for someone to love me.34

I hear it calling.35

Father's so called protector.36

It pleads for my hand.37

It pleads for my mind.38

My parents asleep.39

To the study I walk.40

The pleading louder.41

The pleading stronger.42

I lift.43

I aim.44

My last breath, I do proclaim!

    • you may love the doovy but i'm pretty sure you're far from loving me... I'm sorry Jess...

  • I LOVE this. Everything makes so much sense to me because I also write when I am going through some tough times. Really good job. I could feel the emotion.

    Moving. Oh my god, that was one loaded piece. I haven't read much poetry on SW, but I have to say, you make me want to go find more.

    Hopefully you find a way over the tougher things in your life at the moment. And the very best of luck in the contest!

    "for tears lay me to sleep at night" is my favourite line.
    I understand the need to feel acceptance, and the feeling of worthlesness, that your nt wanted.
    Well written and kept my attention threw out.
    Well done
