If you're looking at me,
And laughing at what you see,
You're very mistaken because
What you see is covering up,
What's deep inside of me.
If you only knew the living hell
I've been through,
And how I've made it through,
You would swallow your words whole,
One by one,
And wish it weren't true.
Because the strength I have in me,
You will never have in you.
So watch your back,
Before I attack.
Cause if you keep on doin'
What you're doing to me.
You'll wish you had swallowed
Those words you spoke to me,
And quit believing
Only what YOU SEE

I love this Evie! I love this line: "You would swallow your words whole, one by one."
This was great.

WOW! You spoke the words I have been *trying* to find for so long!!! It's amazing to read the words right before my eyes that I've been trying to find to define how I feel. Thanks for sharing this. It's amazing how freeing these words were. I know what i'm saying makes no sense either, but thanks, it's nice to finally find the words to define my feelings!!!

I agree, this is a great one! You tell'm! Although I can't say I've been there... my whole cover up was made to make people laugh, to make them truly smile when I can. But still, a great poem, undiminished by my difference of opinion. Keep up the writing!

Now there's a sentiment I agree with totally.

'Rich'

Forever I will stand
always here with you.
Now stay and hold my hand
and together we'll go somewhere new.

You know a piece like this kinda makes me want to know everything you've been through... per say. It does spark question but not anger, yes society..
