American I write when inspiration hits. Sometimes this is every day, sometimes once every 6 months. Hope you enjoy what i post on here! I've been looking for a good poetry site and I'm glad i found this one :).
The first cut was the hardest But thats how it usually is right? Taking the plunge, that first time, the heavy feeling that creeps into you chest But it got easier after that The second cut still hurt... not me of course, but I'm sure it hurt Scream for me Or i will keep cutting You used to beg me without abandon To touch you, feel you, hold you, take you Beg me to just talk to you, to listen to you Please just scream for me I'll start at your throat Maybe the screams are just getting stuck on the way out, afraid of what they might sound like But your not screaming, why aren't you screaming? They must be lost in your chest, held back by your heart, for fear of their release SCREAM FOR ME! I will tear into you until i find them! They have got to be in your gut. Thats where they hide, beaten down by your inability to look at me anymore. I still love you, but I will make you scream

Serial Liar
Wrap me up in darkness And take away the light For I will slip to madness And wont put up a fight My mind has gone to ruin My body is not right There is no salvation No hero dressed in white The devil's in the details The devil's in my mind When i sleep i let him out To see what fun he'll find You should not be so mean to me You should have been more kind It's you who drove me into madness To leave the light behind I used to be a good kid Until the day i met you You pushed an poked and prodded Without knowing what harm you would do You will not like this outcome Because i can bully too The difference in my prodding Is it will not stop at you Stop the bullying, Stop the violence, Stop the hate

Bully
It's okay I'll fade away Into the void Of black and gray And there I'll stay Out of the way To let you walk Into the day

Away with you
If i should fall a day to soon Then let me rest at least till noon When i wake don't let me say That i awake to hate this day When morning comes we'll see the light And then ill know we've won the fight

I will not lay down, be stepped on, or trampled. As a king adorned in purple this would be unbecoming. To wage a war against a force driven by my own hand would, simply put, be foolish... I have split the arrow in two, but with the bow of another so the feat is not mine to claim. A change in the winds that rush forth from the open wounds that mar my body leave no tree end on. The worst place I have ventured in leaves me distraught and anxious. A coward. Rebuilding when yet another attack looms on the horizon seems fruitless. Long live the King! Alive is the King. Dead yet, are his intentions.
