I went to hell and back
to see if I had a soul
I went and hit rock bottom
to prove that I can't fall
I sat alone in darkness
to see if I was blind
I threw away my eyes
to see if I could find
I dressed myself in black
to help me disappear
when my brother died
I shed an ocean's tear
I looked beyond my sin
to see my only son
I found an empty pen
to write the things I've done
I wrote about my world
to find the world is telling lies
I wrote to god himself
to ask why the good one dies
I walked along some quick sand
to prove that I won't sink
I wrote about the truth
to make you people think
I wrote with such a passion
like I was making love
I only told the truth
in all of thee above

Absolutely amazing!
I love the way your words just flow so freely in this poem. I love the message it shines forth. The complete and utter honesty you have shared. A soul open for the viewing, what a wonderful gift to share.
Blessings,

I like the parts where it said you did something just to prove something. The whole thing all together was pretty good, but those were my favorite parts.
