I'm a high school student who use poetry as a coping mechanism. I always felt like people didn't listen to me so when they don't listen when I'm dancing, I write poetry to make them understand how I feel and what Im thinking.

A Loving Mother

Dear mom,
What did I do,
To deserve this.

What can I do,
To be enough,
To make you proud

Acceptance is a fear,

I do not recognize.

Brave young girl,
Now pushed away.

Black hair,
Black nails,
How much did it hurt,
Enough.

I do not recognize
the face staring back at me.

Lost in my reflection

A Captive Mind

I try to escape,
But my mind is to loud

Chaos.

Screaming and crying
Smiling at you.

I want to explain
But my mouth runs dry.

Needing to be saved;
Non existing words.

A foreign language
