Blood Tears
by Zed, age 17
Darkness falls, I cannot sleep
I toss, I turn, I wail, I weep
I get up and I check my mail
"Your website sucks", I weep, I wail
Once more, I am misunderstood
I wail, I weep, my tears of blood
They spatter on the plastic keys
Which stick at first, but then they freeze
And now I cannot share my pain
How will I ever remain sane?
What's more my parents go berserk
"You'll pay for this, you'll have to work."
They make sure that I find a job
But work is hard, I cry, I sob
My broken body screams in pain
I go on, but it's all in vain
And before long, just as I feared
"Your tears are crimson? Wow, that's weird."
Now all my friends think I'm a freak
They snicker every time I speak
There is no hope, I'll take me life
I chop my arms up with a knife
But even that don't help a lot
I'm crying blood, I'm bleeding snot.
