Emptiness consumes me Darkness overwhelms me Everyone has tried, but no one here can help me It’s so hard to bare this pain Lay awake at night in shame As tears crash to my pillow like rain Ignorant mistakes, I can’t believe I tried Tearing at my heart, emotional suicide Being murdered from within Guilty conscience from a life of sin If you want to know what hell is like Just step into my skin I can feel no more Dreams are rich, but my life is poor I cannot stand this nightmare called reality Want to gouge out my eyes so I can no longer see Insatiable hunger for what’s never there A taste of life without restraints, pain, or despair And so I starve, blown away with the wind It’s hard to start over when you can’t find the end With no finish in sight my pace begins to slow When I hold myself back I can’t continue to grow As I stand in indecision I begin to mold It’s time to toss me out cause I’m growing too old I’m rancid, rotten, spoiled Just a piece of trash Throw me out as you always do I will sit in my landfill of pain Just a piece of trash Never to be seen again Never to have another chance Never to start over I can feel no more Dreams are rich, but my life is poor I cannot stand this nightmare called reality Want to gouge out my eyes so I can no longer see "Your anger is a gift"-Rage Against The Machine |

"I’m rancid, rotten, spoiled Just a piece of trash Throw me out as you always do I will sit in my landfill of pain Just a piece of trash Never to be seen again" Oh, and my fav... "If you want to know what hell is like Just step into my skin" VERY awesome write! so dark and emotional. Powerful as hell! I LOVED it. I loved pissed off, depressed, blunt writing. They are my favs. You are an incredible writer! You wouldn't worry about what people thought about you if you knew how seldom they did. |

I really loved this. Sometimes you just feel like that inside... It was great. Who you are and who you will be is right in the palm of your hand. |
