Array ( [sid] => 106276 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Scared [time] => 2005-09-22 21:35:54 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Compressed by so much pressure,
inflicted with so much pain,
I drink to push away the problems,
I cut to bleed away my fears,
and run to hide my tears.
I've lied to you, saying it doesn't
hurt, saying I could hide it,
it doesn't get to me, I'm not in pain.
I'm sorry. I don't want to lie to you,
I don't want to hurt you, I don't want
you to worry about me, but I can't take
it anymore. I've tryed suffocating it all,
tried running away, hurting myself,
writing, nothing's working, I'm going
insane. I sat at the beach last night,
in the rain, in the cold, just watching
the water from the rocks,
and even still, I fought to hold back all
the tears. No one was around,
and still I wouldn't show my emotions.
I don't know why I can't talk to you,
because really I want to, it's just so hard,
its getting intensely difficult to bare on my
own, and I just don't know what to do.
Is it because I'm young? Please tell
me things get better, tell me my future,
holds happier days. I blame myself
for everything that's happened,
because in one way or another,
I could have stopped it, everything,
but I didn't, too afraid, scared, felt alone.
I don't want these feelings anymore
they scar me in ways I can't explain,
I want to be free, I want my life back,
I want to be happy, but I can't tell you this,
because I'm scared of what you'll think,
what you'll say, if you'll think of me differently.
Because inside me, are things, I've told no
one, and inside me is a darkness, I can't seem
to supress, I want to reach out to you, please
know that, I wish you could be my flame to light
the dark, but I'm just so scared.

well i would say that im glad that i came across this. i would say also that because of how you wrote it, and the rawness you put in to it, that it isnt too long at all, afterall it wasnt boring and this had a point to be written. you have talent, and i hope you explore it further. and you never know that when you reach out, if they let you fall or if they catch you, will the chance be worth it though?
