I love to hate you,
you get what you see.
The angry reflection, in the mirror,
that looks just like me.
You know I can't stand you,
this person called me.
A poor excuse of a human,
you get what you see.
Why did God, make such crap,
I'd really like to know.
I would take off running away,
if you'd, just let me go.
I wish you would die,
and leave here forever.
I love to hate you,
please return here never.

I'd really like to know."

Wow!!!
Your words are quite gripping, and so sad... Great write!!! Hopefully you'll start seeing a light at the end of that dark tunnel you're in. My prayers are with you. Take care, Lildragon -
Your feelings are expressed quite well. That is why we let our feelings out on this site. My poetry covers the same feeling too. I can feel your pain and frustration as I read this. Good luck Ellan. Your friend Pat Powers

oh wow!! this is amazing. You have portrayed
some very powerful emotions here. Pain, sorrow,
sadness, and depression. A self loathing that
is deep and painful. This is truly amazing. I
really hope you don't feel this way. Your writing
is wonderful and you are so talented. great job.
good luck in the contests.

Extremely touching
Hi, my friend, I don't want you to feel this way, depression is such a terrible sickness, yet your poetry is beautiful, and you are beautiful, I want to cry for you, but instead I am going to send you a trillion hugs of love!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
I spent some serious time looking in that mirror you speak of. Look within for the why, dig through the sludge and find the shiny stuff at the bottom. I like the way that you show how you realize that it is you that causes the most pain to yourself. Also, that you are the one holding you there.
I'm not there anymore, hope you release yourself soon.

The picture really goes with the poem. excellent job!! I kind of get the image you're looking into a mirror and saying slander about yourself... I do that a lot.
Great Work, I could really relate to the hate.
Kudos!!
-
I like your picture and your poems so... maybe it is your mirror just bust that old thing to pieces!! You are kind beautiful and have friends in high places Jesus!! We love you your friends at AP saying my prayers for you.
-
I can agree with this poem. I may only be 17 but I look in the mirror all the time and think to myself "What was God thinking when he made you?" I see all the imperfections instead of all the great things I have. I hope that you get through this! Good luck with everything.
-
wow, that is an amazing poem, it really hits deep, i know how it feels to be depressed and hate yourself, hope these feelings pass soon, if ever you want someone just to listen pls feel free to pm me. x

Momma is the Best
Amazing poem Momma..There are some people in our life whom we cant stop feeling envious of. They do get everything and their life seems a bed of roses to us. But everyone gets what is in store for him. And the man should focus on his duties caring not about the outcome. You have just poured all the emotions out in a terrific manner. Keep it up.
-
I am sorry you are feeling this way...I deal with this kind of thinking on a regular basis. May things get better soon! Thanks for the entry and best of luck!!!
Az -

-
Sometimes I just have had enough of myself and think, I'm sick of being me, I want to be someone else for a while.... Iknow the feeling of looking in the mirror and hating what you see... inside!
This is raw emotion poured out here hun... your pain is so strong in this piece... you are so brave to show that to us... I applaud you for that!
My best wishes are with you...

Not Your Only Thought....
I was going to say "Way to go, TM!", but I can see you're off and running.
Nice and simple piece: I applaud the poetry.
As for the content, one day that vehicle of incarnation shall fail of its function, so the wish will come true. However, the spirit of the incarnation may live on, beyond the society so sad that fails already it before it fails the society, so mayhap it is time to live for more than ... well,
my mother brought up with the saying
"My face, I
don't mind it,
for I am
behind it: 'tis
the people in
front get the
jar."
Now: Self-criticism is all very well, but you have more by way of talent than Snow White's mirror and a vial of crack cocaine.
Ainnyyywwaaayyy, the flow is good, without analysing why, so I'll just applaud, and fly my own way, solitary as always, on a mission and dismissin' the denegration.
Master Anarchy.

This is very sad. However I did like it. It's definately a hard thing to do: Accept one's self for who he/she is. It's important I think to look at ourselves without a biased view. We too often concentrate on our faults/weaknesses/imperfections when in reality we have strenghts and good qualities which balance out our imperfections. Though it is very important to mourn with people in depressed moods instead of trying to make them happy. Because they will ask themselves "why aren't I happy?" which can make it even worse. Sometimes we got to kill that depressed person inside of us and not allow it to bring us down because we're better than that. There really are people who care about you, even if they would be complete strangers.

depression, i know all too well. you just powered right through this with such talent! you have penned the true emotions that so many cannot speak. just keep writing until you get all out. the happy poems will come through soon.
hugs blessings and *stomps

I know exactly what you are trying to express in this piece, hon. I have felt that feeling so many times before and I want you to know that I and many others are here for you if you ever need to talk and get something off your chest. Good luck in the contest.
