Nothing and Nowhere

The serrated edge digs into my skin
Let the hurt wash over me
Kiss the cuts upon your arms
Shiny red, against stark white
Make all your pain, just go away.
Entrapped in this world of misery and fear
Alone we stand
Together, apart
Wanting, needing, knowing
But devoid of having
Crying inside, screaming for help
Blank smiles cover all, they think you're fine
I see through your hardened shell
I feel your desperation
Can you feel mine?


Tomorrow, is the today we feared yesterday.

This was my favorite part. i can relate so well to this one, its sort of scary....

Keep up the amazing work!

I ask why, but in my mind,

If you want to fix your screw up click on the edit icon at the top of the poem and change it.
Again, I liked this poem.  Its pretty much the way life is for those in the realm of suffer for poetic beauty.  
Nice poem

actually.. ..it's not anymore, because those stupid americans think that it's got UNSUITABLE CONTENT

Pride is holding your head up, when everyone else has their's lowered. Courage is what makes you do it.
