Do I starve myself
Or is it done for me?
I cannot find the nourishment.
That's why I'm so angry.
My body's not sustained
It's empty like a shell.
And people wonder why
I say I rot in hell.
Though is it done for me?
Do I do this on my own?
I'm just doing all the things
That I've been taught and shown.
Maybe I'm better off,
Dieing oh so slow,
Cause in a world like this
That's the way to go.

this is good you got confused on a word though "dyeing" don't you mean dieing? dyeing means to color something. I am not going to count off or anything I do that to myself sometimes too. Well good luck in the contest this was a very cool poem!

Interesting.... I like it.
There are a few things it seems like you could be talking about, making it reach a lot of people with different problems as opposed to only reaching out to a certain group of people...
Great job! =]
