There are homemade cuts
and the school bred sluts
Depression is a fatal trend
Teachers trying to be our friends
Priorities are a swirl
As boy meets girl, girl meets girl
Give powers to attention whores
What else is this bloody school for?
Oblivious to a world so corrupt
But your little wake up will be abrupt
I have seen what you haven't seen
And I've been places you haven't been
How you all behave
Makes me want to rave
Down to the bone you're all fake
And I hope I see you break
And to the supposed leader of our retarded school....
You are so full of shit
I hope you drown in it!!!
Author notes
I love couplets!!! The first line refers to how everyone are labelled as 'emo' or poptart sluts.
The 2nd phrase says how people pretend to have mental illnesses to be cool (wtf!?) and how teachers normally notice these people (maybe because of the huge 'OMG I wanna fucking die!' sign they wear) and not the people who really need help that slip through the cracks.
3rd phrase- People prioritize couples and looking 'sexy' over academics, family and friends. The 2nd line about boy meets girl, girl meets girl refers to how girls make-out with other girls to give their boyfriends a lez show (wtf again)
4th phrase- Most of the people that are being considered for school captaincy are stupid, slutty/man whoreish, bitches/bastards and are the type of people that walk up into a conversation and say 'hey everyone look at me!' (no joke there!)
5th line & 6th- Everyone is so ignorant about what really goes on and are more focused on how they look (and by everyone I mean at least 99%) and I have experienced shit that some people never experience (Seeing death face to face, seeing your mum have mental breakdowns & tell you that they want to die, trying to kill yourself, spending hours at different hospitals because your sister wants to kill herself)
The very last line down the bottom is to a girl that I absolutely hate. She is pretty much the essence & definition of bullshit fake attention whore anonymous, and yep you guessed it she has the most authority.
This is my highschool people read it and weep!
What did you think?

Haha! High school is all drama, it's not only yours, every high school is the same. However, I enjoyed reading it.
Good work!

This ROxx
I remember what school was like, it seemed like all the information from both teatcher and student was not needed at all, but people talk rubbish all the time even not in school, its only people true to you that speak truthfully and meaningfully
I loved this poem it was alot different what I have read before.
keep up the great work

*sighs heartily* Seems like high school hasn't changed much since I was there. I feel so jaded and worldly now. I'll spare you the 'when i was in high school' routine, though.
Love how angry and in your face this is. Always brings a smile to my face to see someone stand up to the status quo. Cheers!

We will all just vote of Chris and try to forget the shit as times. I wish everyone saw it the way you do, then we can deprive 'her' of the attention she needs to hide the fact she truly less than all of us.
"Priorities are a swirl
As boy meets girl, girl meets girl"
This one made me laugh, somewhat true, but it's coming from she who loves "I Kissed A Girl" =P
Flawless and true to the very end.

Same thing was going on when I was in school. I think it does for every generation. It's part of being a teenager, and one of the hardest things is being different. You can either give in and live the facade with them, or you can stand out as your own person. Sometimes I wonder how much happier I would have been if I had given in.
Anyways, your poem is super, I love how you pointed out different cliches and situations but explained them in a brief and bold way. Enjoyed your style.

Yours isn't the first and I'm sure your school isn't the last. Seems to be a trend for every School out there. As the saying goes, never judge a book by its cover because you never know whats really inside. Nice work
