torn and tarnished
burned beyond repair
my soul is unsalvageable
while my body glows in perfection
my heart has been misled
proof of that
drips in the tears I always shed

Outside I smile and laugh and play
inside I scream and cry
for all the things I'll never have
shine all too brightly in the eyes of others

And in their eyes i see
their laughter,
they are tormenting me
they see
all my pains revealed in my eyes
they see it all
how I try to hide my cries,
and that I'm broken down inside
That I'm, broken and shattered
torn and tarnished
and burned beyond repair [comments] => 3 [counter] => 228 [topic] => 13 [informant] => jacquelynne [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

A feeling I know all too well, but seldom have I seen it phrased so elegantly. I loved this one.
