Behind The Uniform - The first poem i wrote!(:

I wrote this poem after my first week in summer school at my new highschool. I was going to start my freshman year there and it was wonderful! I had spent alot of time that summer thinking about a future in Child Psychology. I sat down at my computer, thinking about what a suicidal private school teenager might go through, and thought, let's write a poem!

Behind the Uniform by Asha
Behind the uniform is a girl filled with pain

A girl who is very far from the same

Her days filled with gloom, her nights filled with suffering

Her heart filled with ache, her life filled with nothing

Nothing but the countless tears she cries

Tears she will cry until the day she dies

Death to her is like a far away bliss

A far away dream lost in a never ending abyss

At the end of the abyss is her one chance to be happy

When her death becomes an eternal reality

Until that day she has to sit and endure

The unbearable pain bestowed upon her

She’ll be life’s little puppet with invisible strings

Having to be who people want, a little play thing

Just as a child controls the life of their doll

The world will manipulate this girl until there’s nothing left at all

And she’ll have to wear that fake smile and the curse to be

The girl behind the uniform with the life of misery

*NOTE: I like rhyming, and I think it adds a ironic, sing-song type of tone to my poems so all of them rhyme. and remember that I did not write this poem about me. I was extremely happy during that time and life felt like it couldn't get any better because it was so amazing.
