don't give in

i see him in the hall
standing by his friends
talking to his girls
oh, who i just i could be them

what would i give to be his friend
no know really knows
what shall i say
to make him feel his way
if i could only know

my friends all laughed at me
at the thought of him
they said he was the cutest boy in school
and i would never win

so inside i kept my feelings
for many many years
until one day
i broke into tears

i couln't take it anymore
my love was just to strong
many tears run down my face
as i silently sobbed

my friends tried to ask me what was wrong
i just said goodbye
as i ran for the door
not knowing my intention
they let me go
to do the unthinkable
they must never know

now i'm running to my kitchen
and grabbing the sharpest knife
i slowly put it to my wrist
i'm about to end my life
to make all my pain go away
is this the right price?

now i'm laying on the floor
bleeding from my wrist
i can hear someone knocking at my door
and someone screaming

my breaths are getting slower
and i'm starting to give in
as i feel my last breath approaching
i fell your mouth against my lips

"come on" i here you say
hands pounding on my chest
please don't give in
i love you too much

    Nice try...But not loving it. Thanks for entering, though! Let me tell you something, why don't you try and put a twist on the scenario? Make it seem something more than(and I'm sorry for this term) emo. It's just the same sort of thing in a lot of poems and stories.
    Feel free to re-enter, if you'd like.

        I'm giving you a chance, by treating you like an adult. Treating you like a child wouldn't be giving you a fair chance...I'm not trying to be mean, I just have a tendency to come across that way, but I wrote things very outside the box when I was 10-12.
        If you need any help, inspiration or otherwise, let me know.
