The never-ending Spiral.
There is a certain persona that each person thinks that they have
to live up to…There are different times people must live
The funny thing is when they are finding their persona
They tend to leave me behind… leaving me in The continuous cycle called loneliness. The constant overwhelming…
Crushing feeling that no one needs me.
Every day I begin to feel
Stuck in this spiral of
Fear, nothingness, no one.
As time slips
I get
smaller.

I wrote this poem at the beginning of my freshman year. I was 15 experiencing a lot of friendship problems and taking all honors classes. I have never been that stressed out ever in my life. I sat down in my creative writing class and wrote this in 10 minutes crying at my desk. The spiral shape of this poem shows how I felt my mind was going downhill at such a fast past. I am now 16 and this to me is the best poem I've ever written because it expresses my true vulnerability and heartbreak.
