Within this world so cruel,
Keep me here,
And fear what I may do.

Here I am,
Among this crowd so large,
Can you see me?
Can you hear me scream?

Here I am,
Sitting beside you,
You look towards me,
But cannot see.

Sitting on a cold bench,
Slitting my wrist,
People walk by,
Slowly I am slitting inch by inch.

A drop of blood falls towards the ground,
Sitting alone, I begin to slit again.
Beside you I continue,
Yet you do not notice.

The pains that I’ve been through,
Not being seen,
Are taking over my body and mind,
It all just seems so obscene.

Here I am,
Standing alone,
Nobody to hear me scream, to see me cry:
The only time that I feel I’m alive.

Hey This Is Good

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
