too scared to see light

you hold me tighter
dragging me...
i'm a sack
lumpy and misshapen

you say it will be alright
nothing will hurt you
[except maybe me]

i'm tired of looking like
i've been in a dark room
pale and
too scared
to see light

i'm tired of acting like what we do is right...

    I LOVE this.
    Really.
    It's so...I can't even explain why I like it so much. It's just so...well...it reminds me of something.
    I LOVE the lines:
    "i'm tired of looking like
    i've been in a dark room"
    &
    "i'm tired of acting like what we do is right..."
    How wonderful. An amazing write. I am definitely adding this to my bookmarks.

    oooh i like this
    its quite dark and mysterious

    'i'm a sack
    lumpy and misshapen'
    those lines felt kinda awkward to me and random
    but i did like the imagery in them

    best of luck in the contest <3

    Very good. This poem stirs up a lot of images and really seems to share some strong feelings. I like it a lot.

    "i'm tired of acting like what we do is right... " this is what got me. I love it. You seriously are a very gifted writter.
    I can't really relate to this one, but something did grab my attention and hold onto it.

    Fantastic!!!

    Might want to run a spell check on this. I saw quite a few spelling mistakes. Otherwise...interesting write. Loved the comparisons you draw in the first stanza. Original, to say the least. Cheers.
