The image I portray.
Everything that I do.
All the words that I say.
The problems no one knew.
My life and my choices.
The world through my eyes.
Arguing with the voices.
The tears of blood that I cry.
I'm holding it all in.
I'm alone and no one knows.
The pain that seeps threw my skin.
Heartless but my smile shows.
Being happy is just a dream.
While I sleep I have nightmares.
Love is behind a potent regime.
I wake up full of despair.
I have all but one question.
I only want to know why.
I'm left with the perception.
Hurt and alone I will die.

One typo that I noticed, in this line
The pain that seeps threw my skin.
Seems you intended "through" unless I missed a play on words
You most definately convey some thoughts that we all deal with at some point in our lives so it was easy to relate. Thanks for your entry and best of luck in the contest. -
