Bitter memories suppressed so long Clouded thoughts ache the head Unsheltered road that's all I have Pitiful miseries are all I get Demons cling to my tortured soul Raging mad they tear me apart Uncultured words fill my mouth Blasphemy and curses echoes the earth Broken now I fall to the ground Limp and deflated A washed-out bum.

Nice. It had an interesting style to it, and a content that made me shudder. Great job. ~Allan If I had your eyes, I'd be blind. For I can only see out of my own. ~~Carly Van Dort |

Great job here. I liked it very much! I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. I'm in love with my shadow I admire it daily |

I like this a lot.. but it kind of scares me too. I hope things get better for you. --Marie I never thought that you would ever be the one to let me down. I guess that just goes to show how wrong I always am. |
