if i walked down
the dirty broken road
would you follow me?
from the end
up from the start
would you pull
the strings of my heart?
I promise you
from my lizard brain
that I'm not okay
i just want to hear you say
that we can be dysfunctional
I've been thinking
deep inside
that maybe I'm not one of them
like i cant feel emotion
not the promise of life devotion
i make funnies laugh ha ha
humor is the only one i feel
i just don't understand
how people are depressed
angry or distressed
would it ever bother you to be
with dearly damaged me?

i quess i should tell people what the title means, its German for "the pocket knife."

Definately an honest piece, you have to stand strong and tell the world how you feel. Well done on a great piece
-
honest and painful
your emotions were well penned
and like storiesuntold said, don't be ashamed of yourself -
Interesting work here
Be not ashamed to be onesefl for their are others who needs your joy and uniqueness .If we were all to be the same oh what a boreing place this planet would be

"Would it ever bother you to be, With dearly damaged me?" This is my favorite line, and a great ending to the rest of the piece. I really enjoyed this read, It stands out from most other monotone works, Its a gentle pleading that says "I'm not perfect, will you love me anyway?" Bravo!

'i just want to hear you say
that we can be dysfunctional'
that line just really mega stood out to me, I'm not sure why, but it just seemed...to perfectly described love.
