My mind is filled with a million different faces I can't recall any names but I know the places where I like to hide, hide my eyes My eyes are fine, fine with lies Down to sleep, sleep to escape this reality TV show I made in my head the show's just begun when I lay down to bed Sometimes I think I'm better off dead I dread the dead Until the end of time the only world they see Is a two-foot-wide box buried six feet beneath Their lost hopes and dreams I don't have a rhyme scheme I have no rhythm I cannot rhyme Iambic meter is a waste of my time I'm literally scrawling my insane thoughts Hiding from them though I know I ought to work on my grades But instead I just sit and hate Myself because of my attacks Always at the worst times they come back Scaring off any chance of love I always beg from above "Please God save me make it to me clear What in your name am I doing here!" All I can think of is who I used to be And I hear what I used to see Inside myself; straight edge to the very end Now what I cannot do is defend My testimony to the jury of my peers Their hate and love is why I am here My attacks return and I'm insane Put a silver bullet in my brain Figuratively what I am saying Is I want my skin to touch a blade Metaphoric blood drip...drip...dripping to the floor Feeling my soul slip...slip...slipping out the door Quietly, not wanting me to see Her walking out on my like everybody Stop... I can't focus with the music around me I wanna slam my head through this glass pane to stop the pounding I started this poem 24 hours ago 24 hours later I'm still alone There's no way to mask and no reason to hide How empty and Soulless I feel deep inside So Much effort put in, yet so more I need For this little poem no one will read
