i can't stop hiding

0 posted 2002-06-27 04:58 PM


always, i have opened myself
but only to be heart every time
hiding, shuting in the dark
and finding a wourld that's mine

stading in the center of the darkness
letting the distant sounds fade away
i had made my mind up then
this is where i had to stay

i shut everyone out
and away from them all
focasing all anger
into a tiny ball

shutting off all emotions
killing everything, apearing dead
hs is phyco, carzy, depressed he needs help
thats the only thing they said

they tride to reach out
theripy, i was the one they blamed
hospittles and the drugs
they told me i must be taimed

by opening myself one more time
i found a place for me that is grand
i found people that helped
i finally found a place i could stand

i was happy for a while
something i hven't been years
everyone was so nice
a place where i never had to shed tears

but just as i thought in the past
my woud is the only place i could be
once agian i must shut myself away
cus now i know i'm the only one that can stand me

Deep_Inside-

A very melancholy piece from you. People have to learn to be more understanding...more open, it seems.
Man's eternal sickness.
However, the rhyming and most of the flow was well done!
Small critique:
The spelling. ^^ Some of the spelling obstructed the flow, sometimes I couldn't figure out what the word was at first, so I would have to stop and try to figure it out. It's not too hard to fix though. Spelling can be quite evil. ^^;
It's true that sometimes, we are the only ones who understand ourselves, but even we are not alone.

"cus now i know i'm the only one that can stand me"

I think that perhaps you've opened yourself up to the wrong people, cared about the opinion of the wrong people, and just over all wasted your time on the wrong people.

Sometimes I still feel the way I used to feel (that no one can stand me and I should just go live in my darkness), but just because everyone else is weak doesn't mean you should be too.

Alright, enough of my preaching. Carry on.

P.S. - I liked your poem.
