The Real Me...

You wanna know what my biggest problem is?
I take things and blow them way out of proportion.
I am becoming way to worried about myself.
I want things and I want them now.
I want to be the best right there and then.
I'm getting emotionally scared by myself.
I am screaming on the inside, hoping that someone notices.
I am not alright.
I am dying inside.
I don't know why!
No one is noticing anything different about me.
If they have they haven't told me about it.
I am not afraid of death.
I'm not afraid of someone killing me,
torturing me,
hitting me,
yelling at me.
I am scared at that second but then I calm down.
The thing I am most terrified of is... me.
I am my worst enemy.
I beat myself up.
I make myself cry.
I am not afraid of dying.
I cause my own pain and then complain when someone is telling me what's wrong with their life.
At least they have a reason.
I'm scared of the dark.
I'm scared of violence.
I am scared of change.
Not because of monsters,
or getting hurt,
or new things.
I'm scared of them because I'm scared on how I react to what happens.
I make a big deal out of nothing,
imagine what I would do when there is actually something to get upset over...

Wow, this poem is amazing. This seem like something I would write. This is exactly what I be feeling. Matter fact, my poems are similar to yours, you should look at mine. The line where you said "I'm Scared of Change" was great. At least you admit because I'm scared of Change as well. But, I don't admit it. The other line where you said "Imagine what I would do when there is actually something to get upset over" meaning you just complain about the little things that no one notices about but, it's nothing to really get upset over. I completely can relate to those two lines. Keep writing and awesome job. Check out mines because they are similar to yours. :)
