Broken
May 20, 2018
It's all around me
Like bees trapped in a hive
Trying to escape the buzzing and crying
but they have nowhere to hide
Out in the open
They are finally free
only to find
There is a bear by the tree
Destroying their home
Destroying their hearts
They made something new
only to be torn apart.

This poem is about my life people all around me call me names or make fun of me and I feel like I can never escape it one day I finally broke free I built a new life for myself made new friends and was not crying at night thinking that I might not wake up the next morning because I didn't want to be alive, I was better. But soon I got to high school and everything went back to the way things were but instead, there was a bear this time one that broke my heart over and over again and destroyed what I worked so hard to make.
