Crutches

she couldn't walk on her own
she was simply too afraid
there was so much grief around her
so many dead bodies that just laid

I'm not talking about murder
I'm not talking about death
I'm talking about souls destroyed
thanks to society, they're practically dead

she slit her wrists
she damaged her heart
she starved herself
she eventually fell apart

when you've got no place to go,
where can you turn to?
that's what she wanted to know,
but everyone told her, "Shoo!"

she gave up on hope
she gave up on faith
she gave up on mercy
she gave up on being safe

she needed crutches
something to help her walk
because she was being killed
by the world's horrid talk

she never found her crutches,
and for that her soul did pay
the real her is now gone
you could say she lost her way.

Suffering In Silence

No role model. No claim to fame. Just a man and his words. Just a man and his pain. No judgmental thoughts. No hate held inside. Just a man living his life. Just a man waiting to die.

Passers-by, how am I?

They ask me how am I They're just going to pass by They don't want to hear the answer They talk of my height Besides of my weight Is that all that matters. To them Am I what. What am I.

She

She cuts a little deeper, she really loves the sting. Watches as the blood flows, dark red soon fills her sink. Her only wish is for those she loves to forgive her for her sins.

Can anyone make sense of me right now. The whole world is spinning, my head is spinning, my thoughts are spinning. I can't get my bearings. Sometimes I get these brilliant thoughts.
