My captors don't show fear
They beat me and abuse me
My bruises pulse with pain
Each movement brings along heartache
To my weary bones and mind
My soul became so damaged it left
My eyes gave themselves up to darkness
Life is just a pain in the ass
It can't be anything but sadness
Anger lets sadness have its way
So people let it have it's way til death
To find that death is just another life
Watching from below, the happy little kids swing
Back and forth like nothing could go wrong
And watch as they grow up to see the hell were put into
And have your only ounce of amusement be filled with tears.

Letting myself go
My captors don't show fear
They beat me and abuse me
My bruises pulse with pain
Each movement brings along heartache
To my weary bones and mind
My soul became so damaged it left
My eyes gave themselves up to darkness
Life is just a pain in the ass
It can't be anything but sadness
Anger lets sadness have its way
So people let it have it's way til death
To find that death is just another life
Watching from below, the happy little kids swing
Back and forth like nothing could go wrong
And watch as they grow up to see the hell were put into
And have your only ounce of amusement be filled with tears.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
