The blood pours down,
Slowly...yet filling up a once proud heart
With the stench of death,
And betrayel.
I have died,
Sacrificed...To those who don't deserve,
To know life or its limits,
The knowledge it holds inside.

Covered in bitterness,
Cold...You need only ask,
Who caused this bitterness,
Who made my life end?
Beaming the darkness,
Burning...The insecure emotions,
Causing a wave of insanity,
Yet building up a wall.

Life is but a task,
Unwelcome...The essence of life,
Is nothing but a waste,
Excessive use on the cretins of society.
The pain is the lies,
Damaging...The words you speak,
Are shallow and lifeless,
How could a friend leave you like this?

Thanks for the reply.

I wrote it when I was pretty cut.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I hate your socks. I'd like to burn them!
