    So let me start off with this: I'm not who I seem
    As a matter of fact, I have a very deranged history
    It's not about the differences between you and me
    It's just the fact that I'm way different from who I used to be
    So take a listen and lend your ears to me
    As I take you on a tour of what I used to be
    So back in the day, I didn't know very much
    I based all my knowledge on all I saw and touched
    When I heard the talk of people getting girlfriends
    I started liking girls randomly and I wanted them
    But, I came across a girl who was about 14
    And I said I liked her and she said she liked me
    I was only 11, but I felt it was true love
    But in the end, she just had to screw it all up
    You see, she was the kind of person who although she never was
    was depressed, and did everything a depressed person does
    She acted sad everyday, and put her anger on me
    And she started cutting herself, and started lying endlessly
    She said she wouldn't do it, but what do you do
    When she actually does it and she comes crying to you
    I could only do my best to put a smile on her face
    But in the end, it was all just a big disgrace
    She said she didn't like me anymore because
    She thought I was too sad too much
    But how can you be happy when the person you love
    Starts to fuck up and begins to lie and cut
    I guess all you can really do is feel sorry for yourself
    Because you couldn't take away her own manufactured hell
    So as the love deceased, I fell under a phase
    Where I couldn't even comprehend looking at my face
    I started hating myself, and I began to feel pissed
    That in the end, all the struggle amounted up to this
    I started making up lies that I cut myself everyday
    Even though I was too fucking scared to even pick up a blade
    And I started telling friends that I attempted suicide
    Even though, I was scared of the thought deep inside
    I didn't know what to think, and I didn't know what to do
    I always kept my head down, making myself the fool
    Until one day, I made a mistake I still regret
    Why I made this mistake, I still do not get
    I took all these lies and typed them online
    And put it out so all my friends could read all the lies
    But one of my friends found it, and he showed his mom
    His mom told my mom and I knew the trouble was on
    My parents cried and told me I had no reason
    To be sad, it's as if I had committed treason
    Against my family and everything that I used to live and stand for
    I couldn't live with myself, I couldn't take anymore
    They took everything away, and for months I cried
    Because I thought that in the end I wouldn't make it out alive
    So, until this day, I live with the mistake
    Of putting all the lies I formulated on display
    And even though I would do anything to fix it all
    I have to live with the fact that I took the fall
    So, there you have it, criticize if you like
    I'm used to all the shit that people always strive
    To make up and use against the people they hate
    Even though they don't know shit and they're the ones who are hated
    Please, let me say one more thing
    I know I'm still very young and I'm only 13.
    And I know you're probably thinking how fucked up I may be
    But in reality, that's the person everyone sees
    And everyone says how I used to be the guy
    Who avoided small talk and had a fucked up mind
    But, all I really want is people to understand
    That I'm not someone who doesn't know anything first hand
    I just want some respect, that's all I ask
    Please don't judge me because of my past
    You can point out my mistakes, but I know what I have done
    And this is a story of how mistakes can be overcome
    So whenever you feel down, just believe in yourself
    And maybe someday, all the shit you live with will be dust on a shelf

    I basically just wrote this out of nowhere. I was really bored and just thinking about everything I've done. Please forgive me if this is a waste of your life, but it means something to me.

    It's amazing, first of all because it's completely unfabricated, completely down to earth and real, and it's an honestly touching way to let it all out...if that's what you wrote it for. Even otherwise, it's a simple yet beautiful bitter memory.
    Lyrically, it has, I think, IMO, it has many of the qualities that made esaul17's untitled win the poetry competition: simple, captivating flow, honest voice, yet it's powerful and, even though it's sad, not desperately maudlin.
    CONGRATS!
