Sitting in front of the door with the tears streaming down my face,
Knowing that there is no way that I can get out of this dark place.
Just as I thought things were turning around, life decides to take a turn,
I don’t remember exactly what I was doing.
Exactly what made me stop.
I remember the storm sending shivers through the walls
The raucous thunder crashing through the skies like a marching band
And the rain
How strange
That hands so gentle could touch with such fury
And damage so intensely.
How strange
That hands so rough could touch the hearts of so many
SO tenderly.
How strange
Pale skin.
Long, straight hair.
Green eyes.
Slimmer nose.
Thinner lips.
Everyday I wake up and these features haunt me because I thought they would make me happy.
Smoke cascades like soft grey velvet,
past cracked lips that slowly release the worries of the world,
Kill yourself a little bit every day,
because that's better than living long enough to think about you,
Fat, ugly, stupid, whoreThose words hurt, sureBut people don't know that that words have thousands of meaningsAnd can bring out different reactions and feelingssome worse thanothers 16 year old virgin Good grades good girlBut wow she's a boreBecau
Help!
I did it again.
I walked to the priest with my face reflecting pain.
I said to him, “Priest, you are the modern quintessence of Cain!”
“Priest, you are this society’s pain!”
Don't yell at me.
It no longer works.
The damage is done.
I have been broken.
I care no more.
This game is wicked.
I will not stay.
Why must you damage?
Can I bring good into the world?
Or can I only bring pain?
Can I do good?
I swear I only cause others pain no matter what I do
I damage the ones I love
And cause a catastrophic disaster at every home I end up in
I am 18 years old and I fully understand that the world is so cold.
I am 18 years old with a story that is not yet told.
I am 18 years old and I've seen a lot of things.
My flaws are my weapon.
The scars on my body distract from the scares on my mind.
I have seen things.
bruised and slammed up against a wall, they are silent in fear.
their lover strokes them, carresses them, does things that that didnt have permission to do
they feel violated, worthless
In the beginning
this land was calm and peacful.
Harmoniously
it co-existed
with the world surrounding it.
Neighboring lands though,
tainted by evil,
began invading our own;
The night creeps up
and it stings because
it reminds me of the things
that we used to mutter and sigh,
laugh and cry
to each other.
The daylight shines out our pain,
Oh, but the night,
She's beautiful.She drinks, smokes and parties all night every time she can,No one has truthfully told her she's beautiful, She thinks she's not worth it,
I felt the needle
Go into my ear.
Ouch, I said
As the blood kept spilling.
You took a gauze
to cover it up
But I looked down and
saw the pool of blood.
