they say im so beautiful thaey say that im the best;
they even look strait in my eyes and tell me all the rest;
they tell me everyone notices when i enter the room;
but why do i feel invisible like they leave me to my doom;
ive never been real happy not deep down inside me;
i hide the pain inside my eyes im supprised you dont see;
only one persin can see through my eyes like open doors;
she used to say that all bad things happened in fours;
i used to count them one, two, three, four she wasnt right;
at least four things would happen all during the night;
i could always feel the pain intensified flowing through my viens;
but i couldnt make it go away because in my life pain is the one who reigns;
i couldnt make it go i couldnt make it fly;
i couldnt make it go away and i just dont know why;
the only way to realse the pain is to let the pain inside my vains come out;
how could i do it? how could the pain just come out? could i bleed or just shout;
shouting isnt enough when youve gone this far like me;
who knows my blood who knows we'll see;
i tried it once i tried it twice i tried it over and over again;
i bled and bled and cried and cried and then;
i needed help i knew i did but i was so afraid;
my friends tried to help but what do they know there life is made;
the whole point is to say that i dont see the things you do;
how can i be beautiful with the scars ive made?
THat is a very deep very compelling work of art. I read it three times, like one walks back for a second look at a painting hoping for a different response, only to get the same response but intensified.
hey very good poem, I can relate to it exactly. Keep on writing
OMG Melissa, so tragically sad. I know all about the pain you talk about Melissa, because I too have had a hard way to go. I know all about the pain that I just want to go away but it just seems to linger and linger. I know about so-called friends who have it made and can't help me because they're afraid someone will see or whisper about them. You have written a very touching, emotional and heartfelt poem Melissa from deep in your heart. Thanx for sharing. Barbara
