Array ( [sid] => 9900 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => Bruised again [time] => 2003-01-06 23:40:00 [hometext] => i wrote this last night...it took a lot out of me...it's one of my most honest poems...please comment on it if you can be bothered, i'd like to know what you think... [bodytext] => Crying, screaming, crawling, blind in this dark
Reaching out, stumbling, I can’t cope with this hurt
Terror in my eyes and desperation in my soul
Fed up of searching for the light in this black hole
Let me go, I’m just waiting for anger to take hold

Living hurts a little more each day
I need this self-hate but have to make it go away
Stuck inside this photograph on this canvas of despair
The world’s a whore and it all seems unfair
I don’t think being will get me anywhere

Desperation, desolation, darkness and black magick
Forces working on me, I don’t understand and I’m starting to panic
I can’t stop these voices telling me to cut, burn and hit
Gnarled silver hands on my flesh and I know that this is it
I hate life and don’t see the benefits

I just want to give it all up; I’m not going anywhere
There’s cuts on my legs and tears in my hair
I’m fed up of waking and still being tired
I can’t stand this pain and I can’t hold the fire
I’ve fallen, but all I ever did was aim higher

So, I realise my heart and my soul are no longer enough
Charred, black twisted metal, I’m giving up
I could never see the light or cope with this pain
I always relied on this to get me through again
Lying here, lying in this black acid rain
I know you never felt the same
I’m bruised again.

Wow so deep and yet filled with so much emotion. Sometimes I feel like that too, but something keeps making me push foward. Nicely written nice job.

Wow, Lucie this was amazing. The fact that you are 14 and can write like this only increases my respect for you as a poet.
This was filled with so much anger and pain. Some poems make me depressed others make me go wow others make me go speechless words are hard to find to comment on this other than the meaningless drivel I am typing now...
'Stuck inside this photograph on this canvas of despair' I loved that line so much it just brought back lots of memories. Wow this poem is amazing. Other lines also struck me but to paste them on here for me to comment on would only be wasting them for I cannot comment on a poem like this that would be suitable for it... am I making any sense... Good poems I'm stunned

Very good writing. Strong emotions, and great descriptions. Your wield of words is most certainly a force to be reckoned with.

And sometimes it's just so hard to fight back against the darkness and pain. This is amazing.

This is amazing. All your work is amazing, I only wish I could write like this. You say what you feel and it's so beautiful, I know what it's like to feel bruised again, and you've done a phenominal job in expressing it. You have an amazing gift.
