Gone

As excitement fades.
Hope dulls.
How I once saw is forever gone
I see the holes in the truth.
I see the story behind the lies.
I can see past strong.
And look for the weak.
There is nothing but dull.
For the whole wide world.
Is just black & white.
No color.
No shine.
Just dark filled with sorrow.


I know the endings not the greatest, but o well.

Name?

I look like I'm happy.
But all I feel is pain.
I act like sunshine.
But on the inside.
There's no Sun.
Only rain.

Mister Razor

Mister razor don’t you hide.
I need someone to help me tonight.
Mister, mister razor, I need you here.
To help me from shedding all these tears.
Mister, mister, mister razor please shed some blood and take away my fears.
Mister razor where did you go?
Did you know I need you so?
Mister, mister, mister razor, here are my wrists.
Please make a picture with a twist.
Mister razor please come out.
I have nobody else.

No Name

I feel pain and
rain.
Crashing down
on me,
the lighting blinding
me and the
thunder
leaving me in a daze.
Tears come up, but yet
to afraid to come
down.
Feelings surface but
yet to afraid to
come out.
The pain planting
itself
in so deeply,
there's no way
of getting it
out.

Pain

This pain! This pain! I swear to god it’s driving me insane! The pain! The pain! It’s the monster within. Tearing me up from the inside, making me bleed, making me want to die. It’s no use in stopping it now. It’s hungry for revenge. Making my heart go black and cold…I feel dead. No warmth can comfort me now. The pain-the monster it’s about to finish, it’s too late for me now. Its darkness fills my soul, like fog in the dark. Blinding me of what’s it front of me. I’m falling. I’m falling into the dark. Now light can save me now, for the monster has me to far under.

Don't

Don’t slice yourself with a knife and let yourself run dry. Don’t blow your head with a gun cause even when you’re dead, you’ll have nowhere to run.  Don’t hang yourself with a rope with your feet only inches of the ground. You’ll have one bruised neck when you leave this town. Don’t take a bucket full of pills, that’s gonna be one giant bill to buy all those pills.  Don’t jump off a bride, let me tell you, people are gonna be pissed. Don’t drink and drive hoping to die, you might survive and spend your time in jail. Don’t wear red to a bull riding show, for all we know you might end up with...

Far to Young

You shouldn’t have gone. You should’ve been the one to stay. But not even the strongest wishes can bring you back to me. You were far too young to die slowly. You were only one. We tried and tried to keep you in good health. But not everything is what we wish to be. All the doctors turned us away saying you were fine when we tried to get you help. We tried to keep you safe. But even a mother who abuses doesn’t help. Bruised and weak you were slowly fading away. Your once tan skin slowly faded a sickly grey. Your happy smile turned to cries. Your once happy filled eyes slowly turn dull. The...

Honey Don't

Honey don’t hit. Honey don’t cut. Cause honey were does it really come from? What causes the pain? What’s the person’s name? How does the razor take away the pain? How does the feeling of a fist when it strikes flesh keep you sane? Cause honey if you really think that, you must be smoking crack. Honey why? Why do you hide the pain? It does nothing but drive you insane. It just pushes you farther into the darkness. And away from the light. Open your mind let it sore through the skies. Spill to the pages for they understand. Honey don’t cry, you just have to try. Try to make it through life....

Willow's Creek

There once was a girl at the age of 13. Her father was a drunk who beat her always and her mother died from giving birth of her. “It’s all your fault!” her father always screamed at her after he had beaten her. He never named her instead he hated her. The girl with no name always ran away in tears. After a beating she runs away to her special place. That special place was the creek with a Willow tree. She sits and cries under the safety of the trees branches. She knows she’d soon have to go back or face her father beyond drunk. As she trudged home her heart in the mud, her eyes once bright...

Raven and the Hanging Tree.

There is a tale that happened a long, long time ago. That a small little town, deep in the dark, dark woods. There is a tree up on the hill overlooking the town and its woods. But this tree is not a simple tree. It’s the Hanging Tree. It hanged those that have nothing to live for, the sick ones, and the prisoners of war. They say nothing alive stays there. Well, except the raven. They say if you walk up the hill and see the raven sitting by the ropes that once hung poor souls. That you will die if you look in its eyes. Your death will be bloody, your soul will be lost, lost in the branches of...

I Wish

I wish you won’t see me, like how others see me. I will you’ll be able to see the truth behind the lies. I wish you can see my pain hidden deeply in my eyes. I wish I could tell someone the secrets that I try to hide. I wish there was someone who wouldn’t judge me when I cry. I wish there was someone that wouldn’t call me weak, when really I’m trying so hard to be strong. I wish there was someone that also felt this hollow feeling inside. The numbness in the mind. They all try to make me perfect. But not even tons of makeup can hide the scars on my skin. To show I’m not perfect. And cause of...

The Shadows that Haunt Me

I wish you can see what I’m forced to see. I wish you can hear what I’m forced to hear. I wish you could see the shadows that haunt me. The shadows that drown me in fear. Feel those cold blast of air, that tell you their near. Hear their tortuous screams fill the night air. Hear their voice whisper you name into your ear. Hearing and feeling their pain.  Seeing their shadows walk toward me, knowing running won’t help. Having unseen fingers trail down your arm. Sending Goosebumps upon your skin. Having their breath blow on your face, smelling of decay.  

Do you think it needs a...
