My first poem. Okay, it's crap, but It's my first go at writing one. Okay, it's depressing but I was feeling pretty depressed myself when I wrote it. It means a lot to me, so no hate comments and stuff, this is very personal. But whatever. Enjoy.
~*~
I'm fine
This lie I have told countless times.
Two hollow words.
Could never hide so much
Pain.
Anger.
Solitude.
Despair.
The nightmare you can never awake from
The sadness that never ends
I have lost faith
In life.
But "I'm fine," Is what I say,
Why?
I cover the truth
Hiding it away.
But no one can know.
The knife offers some relief
Blade to skin
Silver on white.
Red.
Painting a picture no paintbrush could express
No words could say
Lanced with pain
A dark secret.
I am trapped.
Locked in this white room
Lost in these dark woods
Drowning in shadows.
Silently screaming,
No reply.
Do I say any of this?
No.
"I'm fine," I say, "Really.
Fine."
