This girl who I see before me has lots of pain,
But, she feels only herself to blame.
Deep blue eyes, dirty blonde hair,
But, as she feels who would care?
She has lots of friends but, still feels alone,
But, she doesn’t want to moan.
She takes out her frustration on her arm,
Only she is going to harm.
She feels so much pain and doesn’t know what to do,
She wish she could tell someone so they ...2 Comments -

The Folks in The Foods We Eat group are a fun bunch. I just posted this over there, and because it was entertaining for me to write it, I'm re-posting it here. If I were going to polish this as a writing piece I think I'd work on the exaggeration. There is some here, but I think I'd push it more - and make the pig-out a bit more gluttonous.

mirrors crack
think there talking behind your back
all eyes are on you
mimicing what they show you
your lives disguised by magazines
gotta get thinner to stay in the scene
when alls dead and gone
you'll be living on empty dreams
too vain to see you've lost
your lost in a sea of broken teeth
self image
is all important to get a head
in a world where you just need to be pretty
or a slut to survive

When I look in your eyes
I see a soft loving soul
full of strength and ties
Your look is of beauty
and your touch is of softness
AAs I hug and hold you
I feel your golden heart
light up my life and soul
Your beauty is like the sun
A smile so big and pretty like a flower
You bring life to me like a gift
God made you like gift of life
I thank God for the gift of you

i want to be free from paranoid dreams
nightmares screaming even when im awake

slowly falling to choke my everlasting fate

And remember that you're a child.

I will only see the beauty of you and your world.
I will marvel at the spun gold of your hair in the sunlight.
How can anything be so impossibly brilliant?
I will see the blue-green of your infinite eyes
And not worry if they focus on me.
