Array ( [sid] => 173979 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => let me be me? [time] => 2012-10-09 18:40:41 [hometext] => [bodytext] => The tears I hold back burn in my eyes.
Not good enough for the world, I know I do not belong.
A world of judgment I can't fit in. I'm filled with emotion, emotions locked away deep inside.
Happiness gone, I can't seem to find my way back. I'm lost, I'm hurt, I'm naive and in pain.

Living my life in the steps of others nothing to benifit myself, people wonder why I'm constantly by myself.
I like to be alone, I do not wish to talk. I do not like to show you my dark side.
The side where I cry, I cry and hurt myself for that constant wish to die.
What I wouldn't do to trade with the souls of the sky, just my one wish to die.
The life I live is one big lie. A girl who has no belief, no happiness & no luck.
I wish just to be alone in the shadows in the dark of the night, the wind that blows, the echoes of the dark souls telling me to let go.

Give up, give in, your worthless and weak. Stop saying I'm strong. It won't be long till I'm gone.
For this time I ask myself how I've held on for so long?
What's making me stay?
Why do I keep failing. Ropes break, chocking fails. Scissors blunt, knife no where close to even sharp.

Just to be laid on a tray and placed in fire. To come out burnt and dead in a fern to be spread.
Think you'll miss me, no just miss laying all your ***** on me.
Friends who I can't trust, they ***** and judge by the people who walk by.
It hurts to know people aren't accepted. For who you are you can't even be proud.
I can't be myself, I lost myself back down the track. I don't even know who I am anymore.
Where's the girl that made them jokes, put the smile on the faces of those around.
I miss that girl I want her back.

I'm dark and alone. Can't I just be gone.
People say they care, but don't accept for things I believe.
You don't know how down I get. I may be a girl, I may smile & have the Friends that others look and want.
I seem like I have it all. But I'm just like anyone else with a story.
If you knew you wouldn't have the words. Don't say you know how I feel.
Know my pain I carry everyday. I scare my self with the thoughts I hold.

I have a boyfriend, you'd think he'd know all this?
Your wrong, he thinks his perfect, calls himself a prince.
Says his ugly when girls drool over him.
His supposed to be one I trust, yet he lies to me and thinks its fine.
Writes me poems which he says are from the heart,
I look them up and there in black and white across my chrome screen.
It hurts to know something that's so big in my life he'd lie about to me.

The thought is there but why the lie.
Lies to me I just can't stand, why lie to protect, why lie to benifit yourself?
Your hurting me. Why can't you see?!
I tell you I've been down.
Mum and dad fighting anytime now they will break.
You say don't commit but there's nothing holding me here.

Tears in my eyes run down my face, am I selfish to feel this way?
To want to be gone to let people see the happiness around them with my person no longer round.
My boyfriend or still just my best friend.
I never should have took the extra step. I generally do love for him.

But yet I still feel for another, one from the past.
A connection I've felt with no other.
The only person to have ever understood me.
I want to be gone, have nothing left of me for people to reminisce.
Deep down I know I could be missed.
But my happiness would be there.
I have nothing for me here. [comments] => 1 [counter] => 142 [topic] => 13 [informant] => LauranHyde [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

The pain in this is heart breaking.
Im not sure what all is going on in your life, a dark spot no doubt. Dig deep inside, push through this. There is plenty for you here.
There will always be people in this life that hurt you, that lie and disappoint. It hurts you to the core I know, been down lots of ugly roads like that but.... leave those people behind. God sends to you the right people when you least expect it and they are good.

Hugs
Michelle
