Array ( [sid] => 18888 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => I'd Like to introduce you to meII [time] => 2003-06-11 07:25:00 [hometext] => This is not a sequel to the first "I'd like to introduce you to me", but more an edited version. i took out parts and added in parts. The beginning of the poem is the same, but i put on a different ending. so enjoy. [bodytext] => My name is Lisa Marie Taylor
Yea, my mom was an Elvis fan
I don’t live in reality much
I have my own fantasy land.
I see more evil than I do good
More darkness than I do light
I don’t like daytime very well
I fit in better at night
I’m not a good church-going girl
But I’m not in a Satanist cult.
I am no longer a child
But I’m not yet an adult.
I am not a demon from hell
But I’m not a saint.
My light don’t shine brighter than anyone else’s
But it is not extraordinarily faint.
I am sometimes very confused
I have 50 different answers to every question.
I will not accept help from anyone
I get angry at every suggestion.
I have many scars all over my legs
And some on my arms too.
They’re scars I wish I didn’t have
I wish I could undo.
For I sometimes take knives to my skin
I can account for every scar.
And one day after many more cuts
My body will match my heart.
I am often haunted
By flashbacks and memories
Sometimes I see people that aren’t there
People from my past that I don’t want to see.
Sometimes I think I’m screwed up in the head
I think I’m beyond repair.
I am not happy most of the time
For some reason I’m lost in despair.
My brother’s suicidal, a druggie, and depressed
My sister’s a drunk and a whore
I don’t wanna take the same path that they did
But this key in my hand seems to fit that door.
I have enough friends to keep me going
But they aren’t really friends with me.
For if I had one wish, it would be
For someone to know me truly.
I am known to myself
For sitting in dark corners to cry
I am known by everyone else
For being tough-never letting a tear escape my eye.
For I know myself as insecure and lonely.
Someone screaming for help to come.
Everyone else sees me as the help
The shoulder they can cry on.
My grades are good, I haven’t been in trouble
Many others see me as great.
But I’m just a girl with a hidden past
Concealing her anger and hate.
So if you ever meet me
Don’t be tricked like the rest of the crowd.
Look into my eyes and know
With every breath I scream out loud. [comments] => 5 [counter] => 168 [topic] => 25 [informant] => BlackFire9786 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => MiscPoems )

You know, I think I might like this version just a little bit better than the original. I really like the new ending. Both are great, though. Well done.
