here but nowhere now

take all the hurts
wish them all away
i don't know who you are
but i know what you'll say
voodoo the night
dolls that dance and sing
i don't feel the guilt
i don't feel anything.

symbols stain the walls
an evil welcomes me again
i look through the glass
and see myself within
walking home alone
i scream into the air
dying to the echos
of the ghosts hidden there.

staggering to a sleep
inside the only house for miles
open my heart to outsiders
drowning in their smiles
i'm crying in my room
drawing on my floor
dying in my womb
bleeding for the girl next door.

~be who you want-belive what you want~
          ~love who you want~

I'm glad I took the time to read your poem.  Lots of emotion wrapped up in this one.  Well done.

"Unto thine own self be true, and it must follow as the night, the day; thou cans't not be false to any man."---Shakespeare
