Array ( [sid] => 97719 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => no longer me am i [time] => 2005-06-11 23:43:16 [hometext] => [bodytext] => looking back i wonder how i made it quite this far
your wondering i know how long ive lived this life
thinking im on the brink of death
could you believe im only 20
two years into adulthood
but fifteen years past childhood
scars line my wrists like forgotten
wrinkles in time
forgotten pain of mine
the past haunts my every hour
each smile hide the memories
each laugh hides the screams
im fighting back but looseing all
myself included
im lost to all that once was me
the blackness the pain
thats who i was
thats how i liked it
all kept their distance
i lost myself in my thoughts
lost myself in all i was
now no more the darkness clinges
now no more the pain consumes
and now no more am i me
smiles no longer hide me
blackness no longer shields me
but now i am no longer me
i am a shell
a mistery
i dont know who i am
no longer can i understand
the corners twisting through my mind
thoughts i never had
dreams i never owned
all a mystery
now i am not me
i am not darkness
i am not pain
i am not anything
my pen no longer spills my
bloody thoughts apon these pages
my razer now occupies dust
and my scares mean little more than
past pain past hurt
the past haunting me
who is this women i see
within the broken mirror
her voice is softer less harsh
her eyes brighter but lost
a mystery before me
no longer me am i

wow, a very self-realising poem. I really liked this and i especially like the lines
"scars line my wrists like forgotten
wrinkles in time
forgotten pain of mine
the past haunts my every hour
each smile hide the memories
each laugh hides the screams " very well written & very descriptive. well done!!!
