It's Too Dark

I get excited for a assignment

It's fun and it’s easy

I like what we’re doing

I have so many ideas

I start to think them out

But it's too dark

Change it

New idea

Too dark 

Change it

Try something else

Why can’t there be a good idea that I can say

But sit alone writing

With an eerie piano with keyboards 

In a otherwise silent room

But I’m okay

Don’t ask for help you’re fine on your own

It's not that I don’t have ideas 

Its that I can’t say

Because it's too dark


The author's comments:

I wrote this because I had an assigment that was just write a poem about what makes you, you. And the things that make me are kinda messed up. I became who I am growing from tramua. I can't just tell someone that, especially when they can try to get me to see a therapist or something. I have a hard time with that. Well I hope you enjoy, let me know if there is something I can imporve on. I'm new (and noticably not very good) at this, so I'm always down to here feedback.
