My life is like a dark hole. I hole that I cannot escape…in my world I am always alone…I begin to trust and then get thrown away like a piece of shit. My world is nothing, lonely and deserted.
The world goes around and I feel that I’m stuck in the same spot. Never allowed to move, never allowed to feel.
The hole that eats me up takes everything away from me. It has become me, become my world. Alone all the time, in a world that no body understands, people all around yet no body to care.
My life is now an act. Everyday trying to convince people that I’m okay, telling them that I am happy and alive, the people, they always believe.
They call themselves friends. How can somebody that no longer belongs in this world have friends, what are friends? Everyday I wonder what they are, but I am yet to find the answer.
I sit and wait. Unsure of what I am waiting for, I try to think about what to think about, thoughts always go back to my past. The past it haunts, everything is a painful memory.
I think about the children I have helped and the ones that I have lost, the teacher who inflicted the pain that will last the rest of my short life. I think of how much I wish I could go back; go back to the time where everything was okay.
This is my world. The world I have to live in. This is my black hole.

I agree with Bukkoroshiteyaruzo that this would make excellent poetry. I absolutely love free verse and with a little work this could be very dark as a poem. Perhaps think of it that way and you'll really have something.

interesting...
this is a good for a beginner. for me, it would be a great poem, but as a story, not quite. it doesnt have much polt but that your life is like a black hole. thank you for entering my contest and good job!
