a poem, comments please?
Goodbye
Popping pill after pill,
until the bottle is empty,
because I'm called mentally ill,
can't even drive to the pharmacy.
These pills on which I dine,
They make me feel hallow, and empty,
yet they say that I'm fine,
why can't they see?
Anti-depressants,what a lie,
They make me feel like ****,
they make me want to cry,
like I want to give up, just quit.
so I tie a rope in a loop,
cause I'm ready to die,
as I hang it on the roof,
I whisper goodbye...

This is a very deep poem and personally, I like it. But if you are talking about you, I'm very sorry you feel that way but I have a feeling I can relate to what you're going through. I still am going through a lot of that. It's very well written and those who reply to this just saying that you got problems are the ones with the problem for not realizing that this poem had to have come straight from the heart. Keep up the great work!

I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!It's a beautiful story.I hope it's not true though.I write poetry too.Very dark and creepy ones, or at least that's what poeple say but almost all of the "creepy" ones are probably the most personal to me.Just don't feel alone in this.I've been there before and it can be a very scary place, not knowing what's real and what's a dream, feeling so alone and misunderstood to the point where you want to or attempt to commit suicide.I promise your not alone.If that poem had nothing to do with you than just ignore everything you just read.But again, I LOVE IT!!!!!!!

It's a good poem. I'm sorry that your pills make you feel that way. But if writing is a way to express your feelings that's good. I'm sure it makes you feel better even for a short time. That's what I do to vent my feelings. Don't give up though just try to face it as best you can. Very good writer you are.

I'm not really sure what I want to say here. But buckle up. If you think things are bad, here comes 'da judge. Your poem aint good.
Now your feelings, those are a whole different issue. Your feelings I get. And yes, you delivered them in your "not poetry."
Honey, whoever is giving you these pills obviously doesn't have a clue. And since you DO (have a clue) why do you keep taking them?
Anyhoo...OK, you have faint control of rhyme, and I do mean faint. Wonder what you might write like without pills.
This is one of those situations where I want to reach into cyberspace and take you into my place and make you safe and whole and warm.
Life should be like that, right?
Whisper goodbye? Not to me sweetie. I only hear hello. Repeat after me...Hello...

Amazing. I remember feeling that way. I have so many poems that sound just like. They so such meaning, and such power. Keep it up, but if you're really feeling like this, or this is what you want to do. It's not worth it, I've got 8 tries and figured that out the hard way...

um.. you might want to tell a friend about these feelings, or your doctor??? It sounds very depressing itself, I can't imagine what you must be going through to write such a sad poem.

Don't make yourself the subject-matter
Live for others, you'll feel much better
Please use your rope to rescue others
Drowning yourself will only get you wetter

if it's talking about you, you have some issues. in general, it's a good elegy.
an elegy poem is basically a depressing or sad poem.
