ive bottled it down
for so long
that when the tears force their way to the surface
i feel relief

it all comes crashing down
like a wave on the shore
and i havent cried like this in years
big heart-wrenching sobs quake my body

and i just have to look at myself in the mirror
i stand wincing, scared of wat it might reveal
and wen i look
im stunned, its me, not me on the outside but wats inside

my face is ripped raw
my eyes streaming blood
my skin stretched taunt over my cheekbone
and my lips swollen

my heart is on my sleeve
and my hands a picture of time and weather
my heart is bruised and battered
and my feet blistered from running away from myself

i want to scream
in stead i stand frozen
shoked and sobbing
but for the first time i see whos really inside of me


*note: sry guys, this isnt my best but im edging myself bak into the writing scene. thoughts wod be good. great to be back. Darkness*

nirvana means freedom from pain, suffering and the external world.

Great great great to see you back! Is this why I am a legend? Wow, amazing piece, totally original, and hauntingly awesome imagery.
