Array ( [sid] => 127878 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Go Away [time] => 2006-11-05 22:43:42 [hometext] => [bodytext] => When my mouth opens,
it unleashes dragons.
Or demons.
Or daggers.
Or distance.

Every word is a disaster.
Poorly planned and ill-ly executed.
I want to create smiles,
but they burn up before I speak.

A life of silence is best for me.
This body, this man who shouldn't be.
To an empty room I now retreat;
my Maker I soon wish to meet.

Admittance is step one.
Acceptance is step never.
I am who I don't want to be.
But who I am is the real me.

Hate is a strong word,
but I think it applies here.
I hate myself and waking up every day.

No one is happier when I'm around.
If I was less selfish, I'd leave them alone.
All I do is cause problems.
It's time to just go away and stop being a burden.
It's time to do everyone a big favor. [comments] => 4 [counter] => 267 [topic] => 36 [informant] => a7x36 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Suicide )

Go Away

So sad. But I should say something encouraging, you keep telling yourself that you're not needed and one day, you may fully believe it. So stop, speak out.

Your last stanza implies that you are putting a lot of bearing on what other people are telling you you are, what you do... it's time to figure out who you are, whether good or bad, and what you want, what you need, from your own voice, not this negative one inside your head that says if others say you are this way, then you must be...

Anyway, the fourth stanza is a real work of art and extends beyond many boundaries into many people's lives today. Thanks for sharing and best of hope and luck to you.

I can relate to every stanza and every line in this poem... It was beautifully written by the way and I think you did a great job expressing your feelings...

Take care
