The Feeling by deaddonkeysrule
4th place entry in H4H: Depressive poem

Have you ever felt the feeling when you find yourself alone
Have you ever felt the feeling like you're at a foster home

Have you ever felt the feeling that no one wants you here,
Have you ever felt the feeling like you just want to disappear

Have you ever felt this feeling like you want to run away
Have you ever had the feeling that this happens everyday

Have you ever wanted to leave and to never come back
Have you ever wanted to tie yourself to a railroad track

Have you ever felt the feeling when you're awake in your bed
It is midnight and you're thinking about the problems in your head

Have you ever felt the feeling like you're wrong and never right
Have you ever felt the feeling like your life's in black and white

Have you ever felt the feeling like you want to end your life
Have you ever felt the feeling that you want to do it with a knife

Have you ever felt the feeling where it seems you are unknown
Have you ever felt the feeling that you are always on your own

Have you ever felt these feelings in the bottom of your heart
Have you ever wanted to be given a brand new fresh start

Well i know about your feelings because i have them all the time
There are voices in my head telling me to go commit a crime

Have you ever felt the feeling of happiness and joy
Or do you always feel the feeling that you're just a selfish boy

You have to take in pride that you are still alive
There are people without money that are struggling to survive

You shouldn't take for granted what most people don't have
Think of the simple things in life, like friends who make you laugh

Why do we have these feelings, this i don't know
Life seems fake and so unreal, like a boring T.V. show

We need to overcome our feelings, so that they'll go away
They keep on eating up our happiness, they come for the buffet

But they shouldn't come no more, I have no more joy to give
I am done with feeling sad, I have my whole life ahead of me, the life i need to live.


====================================================================================

I decided to write a depressive poem but then have it be a happy ending where the person overcomes their sadness. hope you enjoyed it :D

good luck everyone.
