Take a pillow
Press it hard against my face.
The sufficating darkness
Seems to take the pain away.
Engolfed in nothing,
With nothing left to be.
With all of this pain and suffering,
I lost every bit of me.
I try to forget your face,
Bit everywhere I turn it's there,
Invading my mind, my thoughts,
Changing my dreams into nightmares.
This is just something
My little heart won't let go.
On my face I wear a smile,
Because this pain I'll never show.
Now I'm this hollow bitter shell,
With all this anger and hurt inside.
I play it off chalantly,
My pain I tuck away and hide.
How can you find it so easy to let go of me?
Did I mean that little to you,
Or are you just too blind to see?
I never would have expected this from you.
I've put all I've got
Into staying alive in this fight.
But this struggle is coming to an end,
I'm giving it up tonight.
This has sucked me dry,
Taken everything from me.
Leaving me out in the rain to die,
Disemballing everything I was supposed to be.
These bruises and wounds
Are from a battle gone wrong.
It's something I would have never expected from you,
Now my love is forever gone.
These scars will eventually fade away
And be replaced with new ones.
But it's the burning memories that stay,
Reminding me of why I'm done.
Take a pillow
Press it hard against my face.
The sufficating darkness
Seems to take the pain away.

Mandy, my dear, this was such an intense and dark piece, but I loved it! It made me want to cry, though
I'm sorry that your father keeps putting you through so much pain. I hope that one day he'll realize how much damage he's done and will start becoming a better person. He owes it to you.
This poem flowed && rhymed beautifully. Such strong emotions that were effortlessly written to create a masterpiece.
Be strong my friend, I luv ya!
