“That was then...”
My darkness,
A hallow hole in the ground,
Blood seeping down the dirt walls.
My savior,
A razor blade,
Cutting into the flesh on my arm.
My loneliness,
Goose bumps on my skin,
Something missing in my heart.
My only comfort,
The hurt inflicted on myself,
The little girl screaming in my head.
“This is now.…”
My faint light,
The want to be someone,
The want to live again.
My savior,
The wind rushing by me,
As I run side by side with my problems.
My loneliness,
The knowing thoughts of the love I lost never coming back,
And the hate I have forever staying.
My only comfort,
The need to see another day,
The need to see the sun come up again.
“This is who I want to be…”
My darkness,
Is still here,
Only to be brought out when I feel it need be.
My light,
A balanced life,
The pain at ease.
My savior,
Being alive,
Taking one step at a time.
My loneliness,
Not near gone,
But not as horrifying.
My comfort,
Knowing the hollowness will soon be filled,
Knowing my life is much more valuable then it used to be.

Thanks for the comment Sinningvirgin, I know this one isn't great and I'm definatly going to add to it or rewrite it. I guess I wrote this on one of the days where I needed to write something but didn't take the time to do a good job on it. Well, thanks again for commenting.

cool poem rebecca! it's sad but hopefull, and i like that. glade you've decided to take it one step at a time, im sure this world would miss you if something happened to you. but umm, good peom. the only thing 'bad' about it is that it kind of falls off in some places, the flow i mean. you should try to fix it, and if not, ok!
