I turn right,
The world turns left,
I turn left,
The world turns right,
Since I am the magnet that can attract nothing,
Only a piece of lint,
Floating in the autumn's crispy breeze.

"Me" I find to define as "MEaningless",
People I call friends come and go when they please,
As if I was a toilet,
Since I'm usually flushed down those nasty drains anyway,
Mainly when I hear a new rumor,
Or insult,
Don't worry I know you said it,
So you can come to my face,
I won't bite,
Oh of course you won't,
Because so what?
According to your gossip,
Nobody likes me anyway.

Its true. Most of the people I ever cared about caused me to write this poem. It comes straight from the heart.

At the touch of love, everyone becomes a poet.<br /> <br /> Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep.<br /> <br /> A poem is never finished, only abandoned.<br /> <br /> Art is the only way to run away without leaving home.

Wow this is great and so many people can definitely relate, I also agree with everyone else this is full of emotion. I felt this way for a long long time until I finally met people who changed my views, you just have to meet the right people but don't give up and your writing is great thanks for sharing:)

:) Thanks. I am glad others can relate to this. The main purpose of this was so I could share my experience, and hopefully relate to other's lives. And I will be sure to check out your work too! :D

I think this is totally relatable to a lot of people. Very nicely done--in the poetry sense. As for the stuff that made you write this, don't worry. I promise it gets better.
