Something Better Poem by Lizzy Scott

why is it i feel like i am the only person
doing poems that arent sad?
my poems,
i try to make them glad

but here and there i see
burdened poems,
poems that where only made
to heavy ones heart.

poems that make you feel like your in the dark.
dont get me wrong,
i like sad poems,
but not the ones that
portray the writer as confused and shady.

i just wish i could tell them,
yell in their faces
be happy and have faith in yourself!

but i cant
what i can do is write happy poems
now this might not be a happy one,
and i just now wrote it without thinking,
but it is a doorway.

a doorway to something better.
