[bodytext] => All the frustration that's bottled up inside... It kills me. Nobody seems to understand me or My thoughts, my opinions, my feelings, my ideas, my emotions. Don't they know it's hard on me? I don't understand! Why can't they see where I'm coming from? Or at least make an effort to see? Is it that hard? Is it too much to ask from them? I have always known I was different, But I didn't know it was this much so. I'm not in need of psychiatric help, I promise you, I'm not. I'm just different, unique. And that confuses people. And when people get confused, They get scared. And when people get scared, They'll do anything to calm themselves. But what about me? No one ever calms me and I can't calm myself. No one understands me, No one knows where I'm coming from. People don't seem to understand my opinions and thoughts. And no one takes them seriously. That really frustrates me. Why? Is it because I am only thirteen? Age never really mattered before, And I am not an exception. I deserve to be treated as equally as anyone else. So why am I not? Just because my opinions and thoughts are different does not mean they're wrong. I wish they could understand that. If anyone would just get past the fact that I am only thirteen, They would see that my opinions and thoughts are perfectly logical. And I can prove that. (I come well-prepared.) Why do people always try to bring me down And shatter my dreams and ambitions? People are constantly telling me that I set goals that are to high, that they're unrealistic, that I'll never accomplish them, And that the work to get there is too hard for me. I know it will be hard work, But I am fully prepared to work hard. I love to work, And I love a challenge. They all think I won't be able to do it, But I am so much more intelligent than what they want to believe. My intelligence scares them, They fear I am smarter than them. Of course they never say that, But it's so obvious. The government is scared of people like me, They fear our intelligence. They're scared that one day we're going to take over and do something incredible. They're not ready for that, they want to be the ones that do something extraordinary. They're jealous of us. That's why they thrive on portraying us as execrable people who will never do anything worthwhile. But we are already doing advantageous things. We just aren't recognized for it. They know this, They're just too arrogant to admit it. We are not inadmissible people, We are the ones who will truly follow through with our dreams and ambitions. And you know what? It's going to be one of us who finds a cure for cancer or AIDS. Then what will they do? They'll be forced to congratulate and recognize us. We deserve every minute of it and so much more For the ***** they put us through. So why is it so hard to understand me? Maybe if people would look past my age, they would see that I am a person, just like everyone else. I have thoughts, opinions, ideas, feelings, and emotions that deserve to be expressed, recognized, and accepted, as well as respected. Because one day they could help someone with something very important. But how long will that take? It is unfortunate such an issue should even have to be challenged. Things should already be that way. So how long will it take?

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
