My name is Lisa Marie Taylor
Yea, my mom was an Elvis fan
I don’t live in reality much
I have my own fantasy land.
I see more evil than I do good
More darkness than I do light
I don’t like daytime very well
I fit in better at night
I’m not a good church-going girl
But I’m not in a Satanist cult.
I am no longer a child
But I’m not yet an adult.
I am not a demon from hell
But I’m not a saint.
My light don’t shine brighter than anyone else’s
But it is not extraordinarily faint.
I am sometimes very confused
I have 50 different answers to every question.
I will not accept help from anyone
I get angry at every suggestion.
I have many scars all over my legs
And some on my arms too.
They’re scars I wish I didn’t have
I wish I could undo.
For I sometimes take knives to my skin
I can account for every scar.
And one day after many more cuts
My body will match my heart.
I am often haunted
By flashbacks and memories
Sometimes I see people that aren’t there
People from my past that I don’t want to see.
Sometimes I think I’m screwed up in the head
I think I’m beyond repair.
I am not happy most of the time
For some reason I’m lost in despair.
My brother’s suicidal, a druggie, and depressed
My sister’s a drunk and a whore
I don’t wanna take the same path that they did
But this key in my hand seems to only fit that door.
I am known by myself
For sitting in dark corners to cry
I am known by everyone else
For being tough-never letting a tear escape my eye.
I am the shadow growing
In the corner of your eye
I am the shiver of fear
That runs the length of your spine
I don’t have much feeling left
In fact I’ve pretty much died.
So you think I’m a little sick in the head
Look around, people like me aren’t hard to find
Perhaps you should look inside yourself
For I’m the dark side of your mind.

Ooh this creeped me out... very well done! I applaud you for this, for the honesty and for the talent. I'm not one to deny my own dark side, so I can really appreciate this.
