"My Secret"

When I walk in the room


Everybody turns away


I might as well dig my own tomb


Nobody cares about what I have to say


 


I blend in with the crowd


They don't see more than meets the eye


They're too cruel to speak their thoughts aloud


But they think everything I have said is a lie


 


There is a burden in my heart


It burns a hole that cannot be fixed


People never know what to stay and how to start


 


The smile they see before them


It's a lie for my secret life


Do they not care that my life is full to the brim?


It's full of cuts, not eating and pure strife

Ok I'm going to give you two good people so you can listen too. They will expose you the way that all other work does to one another. Their favorites of mine and one is very good at what they speak and the other is good with the play of there words. I want you to see what you think and who you think is which. I'm gonna give you a few I guess, if you want help for feedback; then listen to these people that I lost, they have taught me a lot. 

jefferson bethke why i hate religion - one of his best ones to me.

phil allen when i became a man - just amazing really, he's so good but he doesn't have many though.

the lost sheep spoken word by nick vitellaro - I feel like he's biggest influence is Jefferson bethke.

tonya ingram thirteen - just crazy good.

Urban word 2013 teen poetry slam evy exime - she's a beast, the truth all the way.

dylan garity resurrection - i don't even know what to say about him, he's good that all you need to know.

a deep poem about weed nati gotnext - I'm pretty sure she eats beast for breakfast.

miles hodges harlem - this is the one that is great with the feel for his words. Yes and he is the real truth to everything, you'll see when you hear him speak and how he expresse himself. Just beautiful poems here.

 

check all this ones out and let me know what you think, just comment on one of my poems so that I know that you saw these.

Hey! You commented on my poem "You Are Beautiful" a little while back. I'm just now looking at all of my comments!

Your poetry is fantastic. The emotion that you put into these words is breathtaking. This poem speaks to me more than you could ever know. Even though you wrote this for everyone to see, thank you for writing it for me. Truly touched by the message. 

Also, you're beautiful! I love the picture!

Best wishes! 

Emily
