A Message From A Tormented Teen

By Kittykat

I know my clothes aren't the newest style,
And my shoes may not be new,
Can you please sit beside me awhile,
Cause I'd really like to know you.

I feel so sad and lonely sometimes,
On my way to school,
Watching the other girls who fit in,
Why to me are you so cruel.

 I don't have the brand name stuff,
Or fake nails colored rouge,
My mom and dad work very hard,
Just to buy our food.

When I walk by you in class,
To go and take my seat,
Today please don't snicker at me,
Somehow you make me feel so cheap.

I see you have so many friends,
And you guys always have such fun,
I would be happier than most,
Just to have but one.

Someone who would visit my house,
And we could shop for sales,
I'm tired of looking at cruel jokes,
Sent to my bedroom via e-mail.

Sometimes I confess I wish I would die,
And I have thought about how once or twice.
Everyday this torment becomes harder to bare,
A white coffin would be nice.

Maybe I'm not good enough to live,
And be included in your group of friends,
But if the ridicule doesn't stop,
I know my life I will end.

I know my parents love me,
And that will never end,
But they don't understand me anymore,
What it's like to have not a friend.

It's been two years since grade nine,
And the doc. says I'm depressed,
I've really tried to stay positive,
How it ends you won't have to guess.

My dad has a gun that he keeps locked up,
And he doesn't know I have the key,
To my grave I won't be going alone,
I'm taking all of you bastards with me.

I've been planning the day,
And believe me when I say, you will suffer,
Every mean thing that you've ever said,
Will come back to you as I pull the trigger,
                       and
                          you'll
                                  be
                                    dead.

Written for the ones who bully for the ones who will one day be tired of it!

    loved it... i fucking hated school... at some bullshit student spirit rally, i made a comment that home schooling was one of the best ideas ever, not having to wast time on this shit... a girl sitting near me said that socialization was important (not sure that i knew her, or was just complaining to my self) i thought to my self "so bullying and stupidity is considered socialization now. i didnt have it bad, there was only one guy taller / built with a bigger frame than i was, only two people were brave enough to pester me (the big guy and the little smart one), and none after the two weeks vacation.. i guess its a good thing that i didnt introduce the lil ones head to the pole after all still peeved that the kids figured that his love taps won it for him.

    This is decadently evil yet justified all the same. Bullys don't know what kind of destructive force they have on others, especially those of us weak of heart. There should be zero tollerance for this shit. Zero. Thanks for posting, hopefully many more who find this poem can know that they are not alone nor have to suffer alone.

    This is a very much needed piece in the collection of writings. More people need to see what teens go through, especially now-a-days. I raised my little brother as a parent would, since it was just us and my mom growing up. He died at the age of three, and the neighbors covered everything up and got a corrupt lawyer and their church minister to blacklist us throughout the community. I was just barely in highschool going through that shit... I'll be the first to admit, the thought of taking a few shots at the pieces of shit in this word would do a lot to remove strees, but... idk.. This was a very great write. Thank you for putting this view into writing. I hope this helps people one day.. Very good work. - D

    i hear what you say on that. I was bullied since i started school. I'm glad somebody finaly stood up and wrote something about this. I just had a friend kill herself last week becuase she was bullied and shit. She wounded three of her bullies before killing herself.

    I can not stand bullies,they are so cruel.I was bullied a lot in school...Some of it still bothers me.People should really think about what they say and do before they do or say it.Especially when they have no idea what the person is actually going through aside from being bullied.Nicely written.I'm glad I found this poem.

    Wow. I wish I had found this when I was in grade nine. I've been bullied since the sixth grade and still have no friends. Sigh. Nicely written. I'll be adding this to my favorites. :) Thanks for sharing!

    I lost count of all the times I came close to doing that, but in the end I suppose what stopped me is the fact that I had no intention of dying like that, by my own hand. Thanks for the write. Scholar

    I want to add that many teens get to this point by hiding there feelings and intentions from thier loved ones. When a suicide happens the parents are usually in shock because they had know idea how thier child was feeling. They hide it with great care. If you see comments written in a diary about suicide please take them seriously. And to the teens who may be planning to commit suicide please look past the act to the hell that you will be throwing your loved ones in. many times I have had to stop my best friend in the world from joining her daughter, she has never been the same even 7yrs later she is a mess. The loss of a child is the greatest sorrow any parent will ever have to face. Blessed Be : kittykat

    I wrote this poem in memory of my best friends 15yr. old daughter, she hung herself by jumping off a washing machine , she was bullied and tormented because of acne and was tired of her mother being addicted to crack, She was a good girl, I didn't see it coming with my tarot cards I thought it was the death of her uncle that I was seeing when I did her moms cards, she left a note in her diary but it was not taken seriously, it was thought to be a teen just letting off steam. More and more teens are committing suicide and the only way to stop it is to understand them and help them see that we all feel this way sometimes we just don't follow through. Depression has to be treated! blessed be: kittykatt

  • A former member wrote: Very meaningful poem. I've heard about those who've killed themselves and others for this reason. It's very tragic. Although i do not think death is a resolution to anyone's problem. Because as commented by others it'l always be there. Realizing that none of it matters and there are higher expectations in life rather than clothing or materialistic friends. Who needs 'em newayz. Know you. Be you. Love you.

    These situations are arising more now than ever. The world will never be perfect and there will always be people with cruelty in their heart. I always look at bullies as people who want to be accepted but can only gain acceptance through negative means. Not only that but they're jealous of what you have. This was a nice write. I know the feeling.

  • A former member wrote: this would fuck with most teens. ive been in this position as the victim and its not fun. very well written

  • A former member wrote: This happens all to often...cruelty of the "elite" though as you are stating they reap what they sew... Kindness seems a rarity these days, thank you for bringing the plight of those who suffer into the light. Nicely written with a clear message.
