Suffering and pain

Cutting and bleeding

Blood of black

Like the shadows

Who know my pain

Watch me greive

Protect me as I cry

Salt and blood

Ease my suffering

Of being trapped

Within a lie

And lost in myself

I feel insecure Of the world around

They pass on by

Never taking a chance

To glance my way

To see if I'm alright

As I sit here

Cold and numb

In self-mutalation

Of heartache and pain

In desperation and sleep

Whether acknowledging

I'm a person

I wrap my arms around myself

In a strange sort of comfort

Eases the shaking

Shivering and bleeding I'm crumbling

Falling to my doom

In a neverending abyss

Of depression

Cutting and bleeding

Relieves the pain and worries

From life's expectations

So I'll no longer be a hero

A being of escape

Who likes to leave reality

Whether in life or death

There may be love

And may also be hate

From those who said,

"I will protect you"

Before they turned away

And left me behind

Forgetting that I'm real

Believing me as insane

In mind and body

Wish to imprison me

In a world of iron

In fear and loathing

Driving the last bits

Of sanity into oblivion

Wishing to create

A world of utter

Harmony and peace

A world that cannot be

For power and greed

Would corrupt it

Destroying what it stood for

Perhaps if I were to die

Maybe I will have peace

Yet, it won't happen

For I fear those around me

Will also be tormented

For what they believe J

ust like I was

Whether they realize or not

That they are exactly

Like their oppossing foes

Trained to destroy

Forcing the weak

Like I use to be

Are made into pawns

In the roles we play

Of this cruel game

We've been placed in

Has been set

Down it's planned path

Whether trapped or free

We'll make it out alive

Still trying to be the best

In this visious world

Of neverending pain

That feeds our ego

That fills our greed

For the time being

When we're ready

To take our place

In this world

That is now corrupted

And hopefully make it

A better place.
