cutting away my soul
where it used to be
there is a hole
holding it all in
I take the blade
and carve into my skin
blood flowing out
to the newly made sore
you never knew
I always wanted more
my own private hell
every time I tried
I seemed to have fell
you are supposed to feel safe
in your own home
but instead I feel
so alone [comments] => 4 [counter] => 190 [topic] => 48 [informant] => screwup [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

I love it... This one strikes home with me. I know this is an upsetting poem but I can't help but feel excited when I know others feel this way, and truly I am not alone
