A parent's so called "love".
The way you hurt my everyday,
The little things you do and say.
Cursing me, bruising me on the inside,
little spikes in my flesh, my heart,
Penetrating my walls, tearing me down.
Words of hate, pure and true, flow in anticipation
of my attitude, it came from you.
Pressure builds up, demands for release.
Days drift by, still in pain,
No relief. I feel as cold as stone,
But I've no haven,
no place to be alone.
My fear and you animosity push
me farther into my shell.
You degrade me with your ways,
The tears ripped from my eyes,
I try to hide, from you, the world.
The words "I hate you" come to mind,
I feel them invade my life, I whisper them softly.
Overtaking my laughter, drowning my love.
My poison, made because of you, killing me,
all I wanted to do was make you proud.
No such luck.

The words "I hate you" come to mind.
I don't dare say them aloud. [comments] => 4 [counter] => 345 [topic] => 61 [informant] => flamingblade [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 13 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => selfstruggles )

Torn Up Inside

Everlasting, meaningless emotion

Penetrating my walls, tearing me down.
Words of hate, pure and true, flow in anticipation
of my attitude, it came from you.
Pressure builds up, demands for release.

No such luck.

The words "I hate you" come to mind.
I don't dare say them aloud.

this puts me in the mind of some of the posts ive wrote over the years..

the big difference was i told them i hate them more than a few times.

its good to express your anger and u did it in a constructive way. i love your rawness of emotion...
