    I just need to write this out.

    --

    This world is killing me
    Killing me and everyone else in it
    Slowly, ever so slowly draining us
    Draining our souls from our very bodies
    Draining our minds from our very beings...
    But it all goes unnoticed
    We're too busy to notice
    To take just 5 minutes out of our day
    Just a freakin 5 minutes
    And LOOK!
    LOOK! for pete's sake.
    Look long.
    Cause this world won't be here long and you know it.
    So take a good long look at this world.
    And look at me.
    Please?
    Look well.
    Lift up my sleeves, and take a glance at my scars.
    Look at my ankles
    SEE MY PAIN
    See how I'll never wear shorts again
    Because of this world
    Because of this world that's eating us away
    But you won't notice
    Because you've let me get too talented at fooling you
    Fooling you and this world
    Or maybe I haven't fooled you...
    You're just to chicken to ask
    To ask me how I'm feeling.
    Wait, no you did ask me that...
    And I lied.
    Again.
    But can't you tell that I'm lying?
    Take that 5 minutes and look in my eyes when I say I'm fine.
    Look deeper.
    Break my walls down- I want you to know!
    I'm not alright.
    I'm not.
    Better yet take 10 minutes. To understand.
    Not just know but believe, and comprehend what I'm feeling.
    To dig into my soul and rip out my heart
    Cause it's my heart that's attached to the world
    The world that's tearing me apart inside
    And if you don't rip out my heart then I'll have to do so myself.

    You have some good points, i like it.

    But, i must say one thing (sorry). It's easy to blame the world- i do it too! But, ultimately, we have the power over the world. It can only rip us to shreds if we let it. If we fight with God, we will conquer it. There is hope. :)

    i don't know............its good, i can feel your pain, but, i have to agree with Emi. if your feeling that much pain about something that happened to you the best thing you can do is use it to make a difference in the lives of others. that's what i have to think about when i get mad at the world

    Wow...
    I totally forgot I wrote that poem.
    o_0
    No, I remember now.
    I had to censor it.
    Haha.
    No worries though.
    That problem's been resolved in my life.
    Well, mostly.
    I still cut every once in a while.
    But very rarely.
