I use to show emotions
O those were the days
Where my smiles where like potions
And I would go outside to play

I used to see my father
But that all stopped one day
He never loved me
That was clear to see
As he left my mother
So he didn't see me

Of course I saw him
Until I was five

I use to show emotions
O those were the days
Now I am Emotionless
At least that's what they say

The voices I mean
The ones inside my head
My shadow says it also
She keeps me Sane

The voices help me
They keep the tears at bay
And my shadow
I talk to her all day
Together they keep me
Emotionless

I use to show emotions
O those were the days
Now I am Emotionless
At least that's what they say

The people I mean
The ones that are scared of me
I sit alone at school
With my shadow and the voices
As my company

But at night
When my shadow blends
Into the darkness
The voices take the form of music
And they sing just for me

And if you manage to find me
You will have a surprise in store
As you see the dead rising
From my floor

Not people you would know
At least I hope you don't
Cause then you would realise
That I am just a broken little girl

My dead brother
And a long gone friend
And people long lost

But then there are the demons
The are real to you know
Not the monsters under our bed
But the demons inside of our head

They scare the voices
So they stop singing
And they leave

The demons show me things
Like how the world works
People kill people
Just for sport

Am I the only one who sees it
The way of the the world
All the death that happen
Just to be ignored

People bully people
Just to seem cool
But things like that lead
To my long gone friend
Who committed suicide

The worst thing you can do
Is bully and kill
And the biggest lie you can say
Is it will all be OK

When the demons recede
The voices come back
They sing a lullaby
And meet me in my dreams

Am I the only one who sees it
The way of the world
With common accuracy's
Going ignored

I used to show emotions
Those were the day
Now I force
My emotions down
So they don't ruin my day

I put the emotions into
My poetry you see
And hope for someone I know
To see them
So they can help me



Sorry that its a long one but please read and comment a name for it. My school is doing a poetry contest and I want to enter this but it needs a title. Bye
