Click hereThoughts race around,
Darkness surrounds.
Pictures flash,
Images of the past.
Never good enough,
Never pretty enough.
Never smart enough,
Nothing ever could be.
Try with all my might,
I just couldn't be.
Seeming always,
To be in the wrong.
Always my fault,
Always in the way.
Keeping silent,
With the pain.
Never good enough,
Never pretty enough.
Never smart enough,
Not even skinny enough.
Nothing done right,
Yet nothing done wrong.
Just couldn't be,
What they wanted me to be.
Never again,
Nothing ever will change.
Never for anyone,
I am who I am.

Flowed well. Not too little, nor too much. Very personal and exhibits a very personal outletting. Personally, I would suggest verses imagining the feelings felt two years down the line.
Creates in me at least, a wish to read more from this person, to see what else lies within.
The poet's character seems to have adopted the idea, "Don't worry about it none; 'cause it ain't going to be alright - no how. A very spirit of despair seems to pervade these verses.
flows well, seems like it was written in one surge of activity. Keep up the good work.
