piercing hooks grip my skin
hold me back tightly
when will I be free from this
this never ending biting
it will never end, it will never lift
this feeling is a nightmare, not a gift
the clouds of hatred never clear
stationary so that I’ll stay here
if I fall apart there is no one to pick me up
and there is no more poison in this empty cup
how will I rid myself of this feeling so grim
the only path I have is a living sin
I promised not to be like them, not to live a lie
but this pain is truly, making me want to die
there’s no one to turn to and I dare not try
I’ll sit alone in this corner and silently cry
no one will see my tears from so far away
I hold them back till they fall like the Hudson Bay
if I give it all up, no one will no why I did
because I don’t tell anyone anything, I hold it in
maybe they’ll find my scribbles of notes and poems
then maybe they’ll understand as they behold them
I didn’t want to be one of those moody teens but hey
the steps I took lead me to eventually be this way
I know if it all ended I’d have no regrets
because everything that is anything, I wish to forget
my tears stream down the keyboard and my eyes fog
this literature as my vent, my own special blog
this is who I am, summed up, just in case I go through
a poem, I wrote, one dark night, just for you
