Array ( [sid] => 30822 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Bleed to Breathe [time] => 2004-01-05 17:09:27 [hometext] => A fellow poet advised me to *let go* more when I write so this is my first exercise in doing so. I'll keep trying till I don't hold anything back. [bodytext] => When the pain is too much
I crave the blade's touch
But I don't know how to tell you
I need to bleed to breathe
I hide the hurt beneath
And I wish it didn't show through

Sometimes I need to cry
I almost want to die
I'd kill myself before I'd live without you
In my mind I hate this
I hate that you exist
I've taken so much **** from you and I'm through

I'm **** up in the head
Isn't that what you said?
You know I hate what we've become
Wonder if I was wrong
If we really belong
Is there just too much to overcome?

All the thoughts in my mind
Make me wish I was blind
There's a part of me that wants to see you dead
For all the things you've done
Why was I that someone?
And why can't I forget everything you've said?

If everything you knew was true
Was never good enough for you
Would it kill you?
'Cause it kills me
Would you sleep yourself to death
Before you'd take another breath?
It's all inside
Where I hide it

Please don't be angry
I don't want you to hate me
Just because I do
Don't call me stupid
Or think I'm just a little kid
Try to see my view

I know that I'm useless
But please don't abuse this
I love you and I'm sorry
I know I cry a lot
But the tears you see not
Are of blood and I'm sorry

If everyone that ever loved you
Turned their back on you and flew
Would it kill you?
'Cause it killed me
Would you stop feeling just to live
'Cause you had nothing left to give?
I feel the pain
It's not from you

I can't make this go away
And you shouldn't find out this way
But I was scared
I still feel scared
I'm not all that much unlike you
It's not so far from what you do
I need you now
Will you be there? [comments] => 10 [counter] => 208 [topic] => 32 [informant] => MoonlitAngel [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SadPoetry )
Bleed to Breathe

Now thats what I'm talking about a poem with some feeling, if theres no feeling behind it its pointless to write

Personally, I think there's too much "teenage " "oh poor me" angst in here for MY liking. Your other style was alot better, left stuff up to the reader to decipher but I can tell this needed to be written and it couldn't have been written any other way... so good job Moonlit! :)

This was long but it held me throughout, a good poem, if somewhat angry and sad..
