The three poems that are below are all written by Jocelyn Smytka.

Trapped

The pain has rushed through my veins
Being trapped in my own mind only leaves me crazed
My own thoughts seemed dazed
I’m locked in a cage
Full of rage
I feel insane
This is great

Just a letter 

The pit in my stomach gets worse
A letter won’t define your worth
Sure their all A’s
And it’s just a grade
If the numbers are going up
Why has nothing changed?
The feeling gets worse
What a curse
