My Life, Why

by bryan   Apr 23, 2005


Why

The image I portray.
Everything that I do.
All the words that I say.
The problems no one knew.
My life and my choices.
The world through my eyes.
Arguing with the voices.
The tears of blood that I cry.
I'm holding it all in.
I'm alone and no 1 knows.
The pain that seeps threw my skin.
Heartless but my smile shows.
Being happy is just a dream.
While I sleep I have nightmares.
Love is behind a potent regime.
I wake up full of despair.
I have all but one question.
I only want to know why.
I'm left with the perception.
Hurt and alone I will die.

    Good peom.. you might want to change 1 to one... it's a little distracting. I know how you feel, keep the writing, it's powerful.

    THis was okay, you had some really original rhymes in there that were really great, but there were others that I have heard a thousand times before, and this poem was a bit cliche. Keep writing!

    Another great poem.. you really how to make your writing flow and i think that is one of the most important aspects of writing. Very strong.
