Can't anyone tell I've been crying?
On the inside I think I'm dying.
My stomach is at war,
My anger so bad I'm sore.
I hate myself,
So I'm cutting myself,
And I'll probably end up killing myself.
This darkness they call sadness has a hold on me,
It's s tight I can barely breathe.
I just need a hero,
Or maybe just a friend.
But why can't they see that?
Are they so blind?
Maybe they need a smack in the face,
And see me bleed.
My eyes are always red,
Nothing else needs to be said.
I'm dying,
And done trying,
And tired of crying.
Sometimes, writing such poems as this turns out to be cathartic. You have expressed your poignant thoughts and sad and angry mind through these lines. But remember, 'I hate myself, So I'm cutting myself, And I'll probably end up killing myself.' - is not the solution. You should look for better options and be brave to face the challenges of life squarely. 'I just need a hero, Or maybe just a friend.' - Walk steadfastly with head held high, you may find either or both.
When emotion speaks a true heart listens, the cold one judges with a callous vote, Your poem has emotions that of which poetry is made of, Some of the great poets have voiced very similar thoughts of despair. I like your poem my friend....Be proud.
