    Silent Screams

    My exterior is so quite while my insides scream
    Just thinking about it makes it hard to breath
    To hold my tongue sometimes I grind my teeth
    To down right lie and not say what I mean

    My mind races with things I cant or wont say
    You know its true and you like it that way
    It builds and builds and even now it grows
    I've had up to here and down to my toes
    I couldn't go another day with out unleashing
    All the anger and pain I hold within me

    Every single time you talk to me I think the same thing
    Another straw on the camels back how much more can you bring?
    Cause these shoulders are broad but they have there limits
    You push your luck in hopes you can lay down in it
    You push my buttons cause you know a girl I'll never hit
    But more and more each day I give less of a shit

    My exterior is so quite while my insides scream
    Just thinking about it makes it hard to breath
    To hold my tongue sometimes I grind my teeth
    To down right lie and not say what I mean

    I wish I could replay some of the stupid shit you say
    The mindless games you play, every single day
    I swear to god you say these things to piss me off
    You run my patience dry every time you talk

    You think by now you would have gotten the hint
    You had your fun while I clearly didn't
    I'm down right sick of it, I've had enough of this
    You messed around and now I'm beyond pissed

    My exterior is so quite while my insides scream
    Just thinking about it makes it hard to breath
    To hold my tongue sometimes I grind my teeth
    To down right lie and not say what I mean

    Hidden Demons

    Deep inside,
    The darkest place,
    Where fear is born and bred,

    A demon hunts,
    And will not stop,
    Until its will is fed.

    Dreamers dream,
    But you do not,
    Haunted through the night,

    Soaked in sweat,
    You're all alone,
    Praying for the light.

    The suns sweet kiss,
    Upon your skin,
    Sure that you're alive,

    In the shadows,
    Never known,
    If this time you'll survive.

    You run so far,
    Gone so long,
    Find the pain still there,

    For everything,
    You wish to leave,
    Is trapped inside your stare.

    Lonely eyes,
    Tortured soul,
    A mind that cannot see,

    You have to face,
    What weighs you down,
    In order to be free.

    When everything changes

    Hey, look
    In front of you there is a book
    It's opened on a new blank page
    As everything in life is gonna change.

    You hold
    A book that gets written as you grow old
    And every page, and line, and every word
    Is up to you, is up to any choice you got.

    The wind
    Blows tenderly the pages, and you read
    The words to never fade with time
    The words to describe your lifeline

    And now
    You wonder, what is next, and how
    To make a choice you won't regret
    And not to lose what you already had.

    Just turn
    The page, it's time you learn
    It's not a tragedy when everything changes,
    It's just your hand writing on new blank pages.

    Mask of Perfection
    by Mark
    Genre: Dark

    Her spirit surrounds us
    the glow of her heart
    no lack in her smile
    no tears to be seen

    freedom she brings
    pure love she gives
    her soft skin, her brown eyes
    like an angel walking the earth

    this pretty little girl
    with her golden hair
    staring at people
    while building a lair

    a place for a creature
    a beast from hell
    waiting for the perfect time
    to brake out of it's shell

    two different persons
    lies withing her big brown eyes
    we can only count the days
    before one of them dies...

    Life Lessons

    I still make a lot of mistakes,
    Ones that I can't just simply erase,
    I know I must learn from them all,
    And keep getting up whenever I fall.

    When I really get stuck in my life,
    And have to decide what is morally right,
    I take a moment to sit down and pray,
    To shed some light upon my hard day.

    Life won't go on forever and ever,
    So you must live it fully and be clever,
    Don't hate and despise one another,
    But instead love and forgive each other.

    S-i-L-E-N-T S-c-R-E-A-M-S

    My Entire Core and Senses are Cursed
    In Attic of my Skull Whispers Silently Screaming

    Driving me Crazy, am i gonna Burst?
    Abomination and Hatred i am filled with is Shrieking

    i Crawl Towards the Questions
    Like a wounded Ghoul Pleading for Mercy

    Losing my Strength and Faith once i fancied
    Lying in the Cradle of Sins unguilty

    As a Phoenix i Reincarnates but more Filthy
    Traitors twisting their Daggers deeper in my Back

    and the blood Slithering in my Veins Feels a smoke
    Death is Near, Whispering in my Ear

    i Beg for a chance, but no one dares to Hear
    Trembling i stand my Eyes filled with Tears

    Suffering immortal Pain and the Ultimate Fear
    i Drop to the Hard ground Losing my hold

    Creeping Weak and embarrassed of my Own Soul
    So embarrassed to Beg my Own Lord!
