My Writing Corner

[Chris]

I mainly write poetry since I have a problem in drawing things out for a proper story lol. So anything besides poetry would be something very brief lol. Anyways, here's my latest poem(for the record I don't typically write ones that rhyme cause I always hate how they sound when I do it lol).

School Loser

I'm the school loser that's destined to fail
No matter what I do or how hard I try
I face criticism and doubt everywhere
It doesn't matter what I do in this world
I'm the school loser who won't be a success

I can give my college money to those who need it
But I won't be the guy who gives to the poor
I'm the guy who dropped out of college

I can best the football team captain in a game
But I'm not a guy who's athletic
I'm the guy who won a game that my opponent threw

I can get the highest grades in my class
But I'm not the guy who's the smartest
I'm the guy who cheated to pass

I'm the school loser who gets looked down on
No matter how much effort I put into something
No matter how fairly I play or perform
I'm not the guy anyone looks up to
I'm the guy who isn't good enough for anything

I don't really like last line of the third stanza, but saying I'm the guy who lucked out didn't really seem to fit either lol.

Sometimes it's hard to judge poetry because it can have a different affect on a person, but I can relate to the message behind this poem. Nice work.
