Memories of heartache cradle thoughts inside my head
Wounds continue bleeding on forgotten storybooks
Listen to your nightmares and the happiness they took
Can't you see the shadows with the knives inside their hands?
Watching you as they invade your secret wonderland
Silence won't protect you from the thoughts inside your mind
Nobody can save you from the torture on rewind
I can't see the people, but they're always seeing me
Anywhere and everywhere… they never let me be
Sometimes they stand quietly behind my bedroom door
Sometimes it's the microphones they hide under the floor
Sometimes it's the cameras in the ceilings or the wall
This time it's the photo frames… they'll kill me if they fall.
Everybody tells me that it's all inside my head
All I'll ever know is that I'm better if I'm dead
Maybe it's imagination gone completely wrong
If it's just my own creations, why are they so strong?
Maybe I can fight the tears and other things I dread
But how do I escape the living things inside my head… [comments] => 5 [counter] => 394 [topic] => 48 [informant] => mikki [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

Lonely Escape

Empty twisted promises within a world so dead
Memories of heartache cradle thoughts inside my head
Wounds continue bleeding on forgotten storybooks
Listen to your nightmares and the happiness they took
Can't you see the shadows with the knives inside their hands?
Watching you as they invade your secret wonderland
Silence won't protect you from the thoughts inside your mind
Nobody can save you from the torture on rewind
I can't see the people, but they're always seeing me
Anywhere and everywhere… they never let me be
Sometimes they stand quietly behind my bedroom door
Sometimes it's the microphones they hide under the floor
Sometimes it's the cameras in the ceilings or the wall
This time it's the photo frames… they'll kill me if they fall.
Everybody tells me that it's all inside my head
All I'll ever know is that I'm better if I'm dead
Maybe it's imagination gone completely wrong
If it's just my own creations, why are they so strong?
Maybe I can fight the tears and other things I dread
But how do I escape the living things inside my head…

Even if it's all in your head it's real to you. Just let the other folks experience what you do and I guarantee they would never makes cracks about you.
It's really sad to me that they can't understand.
Hang tuff and never give up.
Blessings, prayer, luv, huggs,

Your words are very enticing in a way they help me understand what your feeling. I think that when you write more, you will allow those things in your mind, imagination or real, to leave your mind. Some times we as people tend to bottle up our thoughts and feelings and nobody else can understand. You know what you deal with and only you know how to overcome it. I loved your poem, very nice write!

This reminded me that the mind is an incredibly complex piece of machinery
It is always interesting to be given the chance to see things from another perspective and this is what you have done here.
Nice work.

Hi Mikki,

I was so impressed with the courage and
vividness within your poem ''I can see it'' that
I decided to visit your personal page. You are
only 12 years old yet you write with a maturity
and clarity that those twice and thrice your
age would struggle to reach - including this
old codger in his sixties.

Another courageous rendition in ''Lonely
escape'' giving those of us on the peripheral
a clearer understanding of such problems.
I cannot pretend that I am in a position to
advise you significantly on how to face these
maladies, but I will say this, you have great
courage, particularly for one so young, and in
that there is powerful hope.

God bless.

Tommy
