...You hear it... don't you?
Don't turn away, LOOK AT ME
Look at me, look at me
I know you can fucking hear me
And I know you hear it too
Down there in the basement
So cold my lips turn blue
Wait...
...Where are you going?
Don't.
Walk
Away.
Where ARE YOU GOING?
Be quiet. I know you feel it
Crawling up inside of me
To twist and scream
contort my body
WHAT IS THIS PLACE?
.
These aren't my clothes.
This isn't MY room.
I don't know where I am.
It's cold, why can I have another blanket?
I want two instead of one.
LET GO OF ME
...Wait...Don't go...I'm sorry
...I'll be good...
I swear.
I like the way you look today
Your hair looks pretty that way
Your eyes, your skin...so pretty...Can I touch it?
Can I hold you?
Can I, Oh can I?
...Wait, please stay
Just until I fall asleep
Then you can go and lock up with the key
Oh! Or leave it, oh could you please?
What if they come back for me...
What is that?
I don't want it
No more pills, needles
GET AWAY FROM ME
I...
Don't...want...this...
Wait...
Please wait...
Where are you going...
Alone
Okay, okay, okay
One
Two
Three?
four...
I DECLARE A THUMB WAR
five, five, six, seven EIGHT
You don't give me a jacket unless it's a STRAIGHT
This, this is fine, fine right here
Walls too white
Too bright
TURN OFF THE LIGHT
No....
no, no, no, no....
no, no, no, PLEASE
Turn it back on, turn it back on, turn it back on
Not in the dark...
I can hear the screaming...
Author notes
Not a personal experience as in it happened to me.
But what I have seen before with a friend and what I know.
A 'fictional' write based on hard facts.
For my favorite boy with a lot on his mind...literally

Sad, but Nice
I'm wishing you the best of luck. I really don't like long poetry, but this on has so much meaning, emotional, and heart felt for those who are there, in the mind. Its a great write and good luck!

bastian... *sighs* I love this poem. I think I'm painting it up on my wall, with some lines from a few others. This seems to fit with a lot of the other entries- they all seem to have this hectic, mixed up feel so I have to read them a few times before I can follow it. I like that. It takes effort, but it's worth it. This is wonderful. Thank you very much.

How'd you know, I didn't even use cuss words!
(mostly because if I did use cuss words, I would feel bad writing about him I think)
I didn't expect to even place so that's surprising and nice. Thanks for the contest, great idea.
