If you think this poem is happy, Turn around and read over all my other poems.

My heart hammers in my chest,

I really do hope its for the best.

A new school, home and life.
The kind where I don't grab a knife.

We have a new student!
New class, New school.
I looked up at them,

But only heard them whisper,

Fool.

Day after day, I've lived with this.
Go to school.
Tears in my eyes,
As I smile and sit.
And wait,
For them to pick and tease,
Just for them to point out everything,
Everything wrong with me.
But nobody knows me.
Because to them,
I'm Rude, Scary and mean.

And the people who do know me?
Are those who were left behind.
Back in a time,
Where home meant bruises.

And my heart was broken,

But never could mend.
And where a knife,

Was my best friend

Isn't a happy poem.
"And my heart was broken,
But never could mend.
And where a knife,
Was my best friend"
Few people are allowed in. People hide their true emotion and life. The poem told of struggle and hard life. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

deep sight can can be hard for others to have , you don't seem to have that problem

I think it's a really deep poem. Good job on a first person perspective. It makes your heart break. Some more similes or metaphors could be used, but it's really good as it is.
