So dark, so cold on the inside
with a stone for a heart
Sorrows forgotten in a cloud of smoke
Slashes on my heart
They bleed so much
never to be staunched
soon I will bleed to death
These wounds will never heal
Time and time again,
I've been deceived by those I believed
were honest
So cold
So much anger
Stuck,
in a world I despise
this bleeding heart cries
for an eternal exit
So crazy it seems
that no one hears the blood-curtling screams
that pound in my ears
these screams are my own
Bloody tears fall
from empty sockets
where my eyes once saw the sunshine
I clawed them out
so I could not see
what's become of them and me
Blind agony
Too many lies
lost hope
and shattered dreams
dreams, that now never seemed
to exist
but it's reflected on my on my heart, wrists,
and mind
a mind that screams for blissful oblivion

Beautiful
I love this, you did a very good job. Well done...i'd rate this 3 applauds but i ran out of points. But once again you did wonderfully.
