My Poems [Completed]

Me

Keep in mind that this is not one of the "My Life" poems. This poem is solely for the purpose of you guys getting to know what I'm really like.

So yeah.

-------<>--------

I have scars

On my arms and my ankle

Where a blade

Has put on shackles

And taken me away

From a world full of pain

To a place filled with numb

And a place sheltered again.

Sometimes I wonder

If I am any good

To the world at all

Or if I should just hide under a hood.

A web of lies

That's what I'm tangled in

Because a web full of lies

Is what I've spun for myself.

So please take into consideration

The fact I may be dead

Inside, not outside

Who knows? But I'm full of dread.

I'm not sure how long

I'll be staying in this world

Because I'm not sure how long

I can take the stress of the whirl.

My dark eyes

Cannot hold anymore tears

My dark hair

Cannot keep growing for years.

So now you know

What it's like to be me

When all I ever wanted

Was to be free.

I feel like.... this could be a "My Life" poem, but it could also be a stand alone poem?

I don't know.
