Stained Diary

So many times I have fallen away
like an angel in her own disguise.
Its like my wings are now shredded
and I can no longer seem to fly.

My scars and cuts show the battles
in which I couldn't seem to win.
Now the blood stains my diary
as it shields the demons within.

For now I can feel something
in which I can't seem to explain.
It has been condoned by agony
as it turns into this blazed pain.

It lies beneath the pages of abuse
where the blood stains the black ink.
Showing my true emotions inside
each and every single time I blink.

The pictures are now smeared
the blood drawing away my fears.
Leaving behind my imperfections
after so many long dreadful years.

For it has became my passage way
where no one can seem to find.
Deep within each page leads:
to the solitude of my own mind.

    I am loving this poem, it's so well written and interesting. I especially like this stanza:
    The pictures are now smeared
    the blood drawing away my fears.
    Leaving behind my imperfections
    after so many long dreadful years.

    such saddness in each word. i just spent 2 weeks in a hospital for depression and cutting my wrists, i normally cut but this time i was just so tired of playing with it i tried to just get the final cut done. i'm not sure if i will continue to cut but it seems each waking moment is seing the flash of the blade and the blood. if i misunderstood your intention in this writting then i apoligize, i do understand the feeling of pouring your soul into the words just as if dripping blood into the ink. seems so much goes hand in hand.you wrote excellantly and i hope things dont seem as bad to you as the writting shows. sometimes we write what we are feeling at the time but not what is the subject of the heart.
