Array ( [sid] => 14080 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => Blood Stains [time] => 2003-03-11 11:00:00 [hometext] => This is something a friend of mine wrote. He was really down at the time so I told him to write out everything he was feeling and this and one other poem was the result. This is dark and very blunt, I hope you all enjoy. [bodytext] => Blood Stains


The tears you never see are the ones that accompany my sleep.
As the sins of my past eat my humanity like a cancer.
As the hands of those whom held me up now try to tear me down.
The demon I comfort inside rears his head, so that I must hang mine.

The blood upon my hands is never washed clean.
Just hid under you, why is what I want what can never be.
My strength is my greatest weakness.

My mother my enemy, the one who carried me into this world and who pushed me to my grave.
The body draws breath and a blood stain.
Sign your work and be proud for your signature I wear from flesh that was cut and the muscle you tear.
Your nieve innocence is no camouflage to me.
I know what you did,
and what I had to do to make it right.

Oh wow... this is an amazing poem. The first and seconds stanzas are exactly how I feel! As soon as I read the first line, I knew I had to keep reading. It's just awesome!
