So sad
A lonely soul
A broken heart
Full of lies
Always wearing a mask
No one can know
Who I am
How I feel
What goes on inside my head
No one can know
Of all my wounds
Once covered in blood
Now hidden in scars
The thoughts I think
The feelings I feel
The many thought
Of how I would leave
Suicide
The feelings of sadness
I wander through the mysteries of myself
Getting lost at each question
Always hoping for a miracle
A way to get out
To finally find out
Who I really am.

A lot of emotion in such a short piece. I loved it!

If you have a spare second, I'd love it if you would take a check out and rate/comment on some of my work. Particularly, my short story "Petals of Loyalty." :)

The second part of the poem seems much stronger than the first, but otherwise it's very good!

I think this has a good chance of making the front page!

true, but you should keep telling yourself good things like, 'its gonna be ok.' I do that, and if Im crying, I'll stop, and start thinking of what Im thankful for and lucky to have
