Array ( [sid] => 72010 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Tearing [time] => 2004-11-17 20:57:34 [hometext] => It was a rought night [bodytext] => Tearing away at this old flesh

Bleeding new skin underlying

Isint it good to know you're still alive

When all your life you've felt like dying?



Scratching at old memories

Dust the footprints you left behind

Erase the pages in your book

You filled with thoughts you had in mind



Smile like nothing happened,

you forget all that ever was

The blood stains go away with time

Just like everything else does



Yesterday was hell

Today was just alright

Tomorrow will be better

And I'll sleep well tonight.

oh wow, I could totally relate to this! I really like the last stanza :

"Yesterday was hell
Today was just alright
Tomorrow will be better
And I'll sleep well tonight."

It leaves that since of hope that we all have to have that tomorrow will be better then the previous days and today

great job on this poem, I enjoyed it a lot
