just me letting negativity get me down - I should take my own advice in my poem 'it's easy to be happy', i'm just sick of everbody sh*ting on me.


They've finally crushed me.

Gotta try to still be happy,
have to be someone i'm not,
the rising tide's trying to drown me,
and it comes in quicker then I can swim.

Crazy thoughts are coming to my brain,
Everyone's disbelief in me,
is driving me insane.

Depression -
can't have that - oh no,
that's only me 'attention-seeking'.

Sick of trying to everyone prove,
that i'm better - and smarter -
then they thought,
they have finally crushed me,
with their sharp black hooves.

Such an honest poem, I think that we've all felt like this sometimes. I loved the image in the last stanza, so beautifully suggestive.

Oh! No! Nobody can crush you Liz!
JUST NOBODY CAN!!!
I am there to tell you how smart you are!
How happy go lucky, you are!
You just don't listen to them, sweet heart!
Thay are lying, if they tell you you are not intelligent, because you are! And you are certainly better then them!
Just be your self!
Just be happy to be your self!
Don't even try to be like those boring morones!
You are what you are! And every body loves you and likes you for what you are! OK?
((((((hugs to make you feel more cofident about yourself))))
Love, xxx, Zoya
