It's totally normal hon. Many people go through stages in their lives when their interests are mainly the "dark side" of life. When your hormones are raging things can seem hopeless, especially for someone who is very sensitive. Writing is a good way to express these feelings and can help you relieve some of the stress you are feeling.
If it upsets or worries others then maybe don't show them the darkest ones. Just because you understand what you are doing doesn't mean they will. Everyone sees things differently. If you know it upsets them and show then anyway you might want to ask yourself why you do that. Are you testing them to make sure they still care?
On the plus side, you are lucky to have people that love you so much they worry about you and how you are feeling.
A note of caution though. If things do ever get to the point where you see ONLY the dark side, you need to get some help. People can become too over-involved in their own feelings to the point that the feelings almost take them over. Remember that you were given a brain, not just a heart. Use your intelligence to put things in perspective when you need to.
There are tons of online sites dedicated to teenagers and the poetry they write. Just do a yahoo search.
Years ago I worked with street kids that wrote the saddest, darkest and most angst-ridden poetry I've ever seen. Most of them are now grown with families and are quite happy in their lives. They've all said at one time or another that their writing helped them to get through the tough times.
Enjoy your poetry. Writing is a great talent if you develop it and will serve you well no matter what you choose to do in life.
Take care.

I think that it's normal. I know when I'm going threw depressing situations I listen to sad songs and am always questioning myself. I don't think that you're going to take your life, you just have to get threw the hard times. If you're any where it's snowing, when spring comes hopefully you'll be happier!! Take care of yourself.

I think it is normal, because its when people lose someone close to them,they start to realize how much they actually meant to you in the first place. and writing poems is a way of showing your feelings and how much you care about them.

As long as ur not really thinking abt doing something silly, its cool. It just shows ur a really emotional person. You feel certain things deeper than others. Thats all :)
I'm quite the same lol. I'm sorry for ur loss :(
God Bless!

It's just fine; in fact, letting it out is healthy. Besides, if you get enough practice, you may benefit from it in the future. Just do what you're doing, and lock it up if you don't want people to see it.

it is perfectly normal. that is a way that people express themselves. if that is what you enjoy writing about to make youself feel better, then keep on doing it. just don't kill yourself.
SORRY BOUT YOUR SISTER AND NIECE!!!

normal to grieve and show it as you know how to deal with it
Hell is it normal to ask total strangers for advice on Yahoo?
