Will there ever be a day where I don't
                                                               wake
                                                                sleep
                                                                 bleed
                                                                  cry
                              In Pain?

Well?

What I (personally) like about this poem is the uneasy feeling I get when I read the last line.

The voices in my head and I have been best friends from the start.
They used to be angels but now they're devils:
The kind of friends my mom used to warn me about.

My mind is a storm.
Constantly swirling;
Moving.

It's loud and I cannot escape it.
Oh! This assemblage of demons that
Plague me!
''Leave me'' I scream. I yell.
They laugh.
Why do I bother?
They will never leave.

In the eye of the storm,
I have my dalliances with happiness;
But its never long enough.

One day, I will be free.
This is temporary, a mere blip in this life.

My life.

This is my third ever poem that I've written, so I'm not too sure on techniques etc or if this even sounds good, but I hope its ok, I put a lot of thought and feelings into it. :-)

I'm good at tying up loose ends;
i spend my free time fastening nooses from the intestines of bad memories.

I want us with capital letters
Direct indication saying, really saying
We are a beginning
I want us from your mouth, eager to speak
Announce and to elevate
Complete with well timed spacing to make it easy
Easier to digest a passage so eloquent
So subtle
So illuminating
That we don't have to say anything
And it still reads right

Him
he makes me smile
the way hid dimples
indent on either cheek
the way his smile
extends from ear to ear
the sparkles that shine
through his emerald eyes
the way his nostrils
flare when he's angry
the way his laugh
effects those around him
the way he whispers
“i love you” into
my hair when he thinks
i’m asleep, the warmth
of his breath against my skin
while his lips are pressed
against my dimpled cheek
i love the way he make
me feel, when i’m sad
it's as if he picks up all my broken
pieces and melds them back together
i love the way he pulls silly faces
in attempt to make me laugh
but most importantly,
i love who i am when
i’m with him
