Is this the Start Of The Breakdown?
Are these Tears For Fears a true sign
That I may not make it out alive?
Does The Hurting prove too strong
That I may not last for long?
Am I a Fish Out Of Water
A failure of a daughter?
Does the world want to Watch Me Bleed?
Is that the entertainment they truly need?
And yet...
Call Me Mellow, you Mad World
You'll never get hold of this little girl
Because Everybody Wants To Rule The World
Except me

What a weird poem this is
These are no random caps, by the way. They mark the song titles from the band "Tears For Fears." Just wanted to let everyone know so that I don't get charged with plagiarism or something like that.

Good piece, the random caps are a bit confusing, but the meaning is profound.

Are those song titles? Haha. Very nice, the way this flows so well.
