Array ( [sid] => 18846 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => I'd like to introduce you to me [time] => 2003-06-10 03:25:00 [hometext] => [bodytext] => My name is Lisa Marie Taylor
Yea, my mom was an Elvis fan
I don’t live in reality much
I have my own fantasy land.
I see more evil than I do good
More darkness than I do light
I don’t like daytime very well
I fit in better at night
I’m not a good church-going girl
But I’m not in a Satanist cult.
I am no longer a child
But I’m not yet an adult.
I am not a demon from hell
But I’m not a saint.
My light don’t shine brighter than anyone else’s
But it is not extraordinarily faint.
I am sometimes very confused
I have 50 different answers to every question.
I will not accept help from anyone
I get angry at every suggestion.
I have many scars all over my legs
And some on my arms too.
They’re scars I wish I didn’t have
I wish I could undo.
For I sometimes take knives to my skin
I can account for every scar.
And one day after many more cuts
My body will match my heart.
I am often haunted
By flashbacks and memories
Sometimes I see people that aren’t there
People from my past that I don’t want to see.
Sometimes I think I’m screwed up in the head
I think I’m beyond repair.
I am not happy most of the time
For some reason I’m lost in despair.
My brother’s suicidal, a druggie, and depressed
My sister’s a drunk and a whore
I don’t wanna take the same path that they did
But this key in my hand seems to only fit that door.
I am known by myself
For sitting in dark corners to cry
I am known by everyone else
For being tough-never letting a tear escape my eye.
I am the shadow growing
In the corner of your eye
I am the shiver of fear
That runs the length of your spine
I don’t have much feeling left
In fact I’ve pretty much died.
So you think I’m a little sick in the head
Look around, people like me aren’t hard to find
Perhaps you should look inside yourself
For I’m the dark side of your mind. [comments] => 7 [counter] => 233 [topic] => 25 [informant] => BlackFire9786 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => MiscPoems )
I'd like to introduce you to me

Ooh this creeped me out... very well done! I applaud you for this, for the honesty and for the talent. I'm not one to deny my own dark side, so I can really appreciate this.
