How can I love when my soul is so empty? And how can I mend with this sick broken heart? I'm searching for answers that lack just the question. Deprived of all meaning as I fall apart. I'm lost in a world that knows nothing about me. Angry and raged, watch me tear it all down. Unwilling to change cause they've already changed me. The violence inside me just begs to come out. I'm dead on the inside but my face never shows. Fearful of ignorance and things I don't know. The rains pouring down and I'm scared for my life. And this ones because it just all had to rhyme.

Beautiful Reminds me of many nights past, with the dawn viewed from the flipside, as well as tonight. Beauty can be found in all places, even within the darkness of the soul. |

Emily, Very intense, I really liked the last line, They don't always have to rhyme, but what a thoughtful way of ending, by showing that a poem is after all, a poem. Nice, Tracey. |

Life does rhyme, your poem proves it, bittersweet at times, but living through it means we're still living, enjoyed, Bloodline |
