"I want to be a poet"she  thought she said,

but in her mind for she was numb,

her body was possessed,

her feelings long dead-


"I'll do well in SAT - I'm not dumb" ,

was what she really said,

for her heart was shackl'd

In the devilish world where she wished herself dead!


How dare could she protest,

she was but a puppet;

of members of her aspiring house

where if she failed would be considered worse than  a mouse.


Burdened by all the hate,

she took her final rest

the blood adorning the house,

where she had the guts to put a final pause.


The coward ended her life

now no need to bicker;

her poems were her unshed tears, 

because  her worries who even cares! 


No she  brought home no Booker,

her nerve ends frayed with knife;

Noone saw that even her essays had flares,

her death was the result of the haters' prayer.


PS:- Sorry, the poem is highly morbid. I would be obliged if someone read it and shared their views with me
