Megan Baker Biography

Some call me Emo/Goth chick. I'm a senior at Bear Creek High in Lakewood, Colorado. Currently,17. I've always been an outcast and chances are I will die one. Sophomore year I fell head-over-heels for an older guy, he 'gave me a chance' for a few days, avoided me for a week, then dumped me 'for my own good'. I used to draw quite a bit, but haven't much since the guy. As for my writing, it became my way to vent. Most of my stuff is angry or depressing, so if that isn't to your liking...hey, I tried giving you a heads up. Most likely any poems I have here (and many more I can't post on here due to language) are on my MySpace Blog pages. You be reasonable - I'll return the favor. You be unreasonable - I'll disable your ability to be unreasonable on here. MySpace link: http: //blogs.myspace.com/index.cfm? fuseaction=blog Have fun with it.)

The Best Poem Of Megan Baker

Battle-Scarred Heart

Time has taken a heavy toll on me
In a never-ending story I know too well
And here I am - the lonely that knows no content
And all around me they never notice
Just how breakable I am right now
And just what ails me - I'd never tell
Few would know the pain I harbor
And if they did they'd be in awe at how I carry on
There's a heart inside battle-scarred by my traitors
And a hollow space where a soul would be in a believer
It seems all that's left in me
Is everything we hate
So how can they say there's any good left in me
When I feel so broken and everything feels so wrong
They'll never know just how horrid I have felt
And the ache inside a hollow heart
Everyone says is filled with tender care
Even though it binds me here -
Constricts me until I have no air
And in this daily pain
I can't help but wonder 'what is there to gain? '
