Am I really hurt?
Or is it just my way of hiding my mistakes?
Am I really hurt?
Or is it just that I am exhausted of life?
Am I really hurt?
Or is it just me playing the victim card?
I ask these questions from the universe,
But all I get are hollow whispers.
I ask these questions from the crowd,
But all I get are pity stares.
I wonder if my heart is broken
And fear undressed.
I wonder if I am just choosing between life and death.
All this seems *******.
All this seems unrealistic.
But these are my questions
And this is my poetry.
I like my broken self.
Or do I really?
But these are my questions.
And you've got no right
To decide who I am...
My pain is not a story for you to follow. It's a wound. These words are the cry of a soul so tired, it has to wonder if it's just playing a part. I don't want your sympathy. I just want you to know this kind of pain exists, and it's as real as the words on this page.

A girl so small,
turned into a beautiful woman.
A will so weak,
turned into a strong desire.
And I'll let you believe
that your little small girl
turned into a fire.
The fire ablaze,
makes everyone daze
and lets them get lost in a maze.
That girl is no more feeble.
That girl, though, is no more real.
But she is here, standing strong.
But she is here, proving them all wrong.
This is dedicated to all who were once hurt by whispers.

You chose to answer with your actions, not with your voice. You transformed so completely that your success became the only answer they needed. This is for you—you who grew so bright that the shadows of their doubt simply disappeared.

I've been full of desires,
something that anyone hardly admires,
I aim for the best,
but it takes a lot of tests!

I'm frightened of the best, wonderful,
and that sure makes me pitiful,
There is this darkness behind me,
waiting to swallow me up,
clobber me down.

I'm jealous, I hate it,
I'm anguished, I hate it,
I'm stressed, I hate it,
I'm rude, I hate it,
but it's the darkness, not me,
it's the madness, not me.
"We all have a side we don't always show. This is mine."

The random stuff hits me hard,
It makes me wanna cry.
So much to bear, so much to say
is it a day, or typically my way.
To those who know the weight of a small betrayal, the sting of an ignorant word—how these minor things can feel too great to bear.

The girl, not sane,
stood by herself against her death,
holding darkness within;
she had stood so for eighty years, and might stand for eighty more.
To those who are fighting for everything in their life,
And still don't get the love  they deserve...

Conflict and rage is all that is left.
My mind is shattered, my body restless,
The feelings of mine have turned to ice,
As if the life lost all its spice,
And became the victim of sacrifice.
If I could cry, that would have been nice,
But the broken and torn person would not suffice,
To exist in this world,
You must understand
The game of dice
The game of treachery taking its stand,
I feel numb, not ready to move,
I smell of ashes and residue,
And it seems to refuse,
It seems to refuse ,the darkness within me,
It seems to refuse, the emptiness within me,
I guess that is how you live and learn,
I guess that is how your weaknesses burn....
For those who are broken to the core,
Remember even if you are sad ,
You still have something you like..

Some people talk behind my back,
Such a waste of talent, such a waste of fact,
While I move ahead of time,
they're concerned by the past of mine,
But well,
I allow them to do it,
'cause it's their work to praise me,
it's their destiny to raise me,
They do it in a daze,
As they are lost in a maze
This is for those who are being talked about,
Don't worry you are special...
