I have to write a poem and the topic was alienation and isolation of self for protection. The poem I wrote was:
I feel your presence, even though you’re not really here
I feel so empty, but what do I really fear?
You left all alone, to the other side
Now all I can do is lie here and cry
I feel so alone but don’t I want any help
The people, they laugh; they don’t ever stop
Those who surround me, feel nothing more than strangers
Because of your memory, I see them all as dangers
I’m so close to being free, no more worries, no more sorrows; I can finally be me
All it takes is one small move; could you do this for me?
Kick over the chair, watch me fall and let me be free
Is this too serious for a year poem assignment?
Thanks

Well, I don’t know what kind of poetry you were supposed to write, but I have trouble finding the metric and rhyming pattern.
About the serious….is this something truly you feel and live? If it is not, then it is perfect!!!!!!!! 🙂 You surely wouldn’t want to freak the whole school out do you? 😉
You have talent! Keep up the good work!

As an assignment at that grade level, it is teen angst and cliché, but we aren’t the judges of your issues, or maturity level.
Yeah and get some help if you’re having suicidal thoughts.
