PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

You have no idea what I’m going through

It’s a struggle everyday

And you say that YOUR life is hard.

The standards I hold to myself

I can never live up to

Do you know what it’s like to always be reaching

For something that isn’t attainable to you

All my life,

I am constantly trying

To be a certain way

And you say that I

Should live for myself

Well its easier said than done

In a world that ostracizes

And constantly criticizes

How can I resist the pressures

That put out there to me

I see life stretching out

A big screen in front of me

And I’m on a stage

Forgetting my lines

Falling over my feet

And getting left behind.
