Please read this all the way through before you decide it isnt right to be up.
===================================================
Slip
Sliding
Sidways
Into myself
The shadows
Once again welcoming
The shattered
Tattered
Heart of a soul
No one to greet me
No one to meet
But a double edge razor
Calling to me
Circleing slowly
Trying to resist
Sitting in a darkened corner
Of my tourtured mind
Struggeling to regain controll
To retie broken strings
Your words
Turn this darkness
To a darkened grey
A breif hope
That love
Could actually exist
For me
Throw away the blade
With a look of disdane
No one needs that kind of comfort
No one nneds this kind of pain
Your eyes cut through me
So I look away
Tears barely covered
Can't give my pain away
Used to contemplate
Life or Death
But that didn't get me anywhere
So I decided
To try to live
But I'm afraid to trust
Anyone
With what really
Goes on
Inside
Please dont hurt me
This is the last time
I come to you
A broken child
In an eight-teen year olds life
Trying not to cry
Or show my fear
Cause even though
I'd welcome death
I'm afraid to die

I am not alive. Just a shell mearly moving with what is left of a ghost. An echo I am whats left after the true thing has left.

Wow. This is an awsome poem. Just please tell me you don't cut yourself.

-Smile, it's not a sin.

I liked it. But the way you broke the lines up made it hard to read. I didn't think it added anything to the poem. Thanks for sharing, and keep writing.
