Poet Introduction
I'm a little black rain cloud, Save me, Cleanse me.
Dark Feelings
In the dark,
In your comfort zone,
As others achieve,
So much more than you,
As you try to step out,
The wind of Hate,
Keeps you in your zone,
And pushes you back,
Filling you with despair,
Trying to solve your plight,
Living in hell,
Masking fear,
To show bravery,
When there is none,
Cowering behind lies,
Lies of reason,
To your weak mind,
Trying to live two lives,
At one time.
Killing your self,
Killing your friends,
A plight that's unsolvable,
Live if you can.

Killing your friends,
A plight that's unsolvable,

Battle Scars
Pale lacing around my wrists,
Is just the comfort,
The scars deep down,
Are the ones still bleeding strong,
The pain of knowing,
That no one likes you.
Your parents,
Other students,
And yet teachers to,
Don't like you for who you are,
But what you can do,
The scars are symbolical to those,
Who just don't care,
My bruises don't leave,
Their the reminder,
Of my personality,
My ugly personality,
Do they think I'm a demon?
Purple,Green,and Black,
Dapple my skin,
Who am I? ...

Horrid
Guilt is gnawing my insides out,
It was one small lie,
Yes, it grew,
But now it's severing me in half,
How can I save my self?
A little lie,
Now it's killing me,
Black and White,
Good and Bad,
Yin and Yang,
Who will over power me first?
Now my life is one big lie,
Who is in charge of my life anyway?
Who will stop me this time,
How can I live with this lie?
How would you live with a life changing lie/secret?

An Oblivion
As blood runs down our arm,
My identity slips away,
On scarlet drops,
This pain we feel,
Is not for them,
But for us.
To keep us tethered to reality,
To have a reason to cry,
Yet a reason to try,
A glimpse of hope,
Enough to blind our eyes,
Our eyes of lies.
Lies that will change us forever,
Never will we be the same.
As the shadow of despair,
Falls upon us,
We run into oblivion,
A one way door,
With no way back,
We'll scream and cry,
Yet it's to late,
We're stuck in this oblivion,
Called Life.
