Born into Death

Contributed by Destiny on Friday, 13th June 2003 @ 01:25:00 PM in AEST
Topic: DarkPoetry



I was born with death on my skin
my heart seized to beat and my lungs didn't fill
my blood was filled with corruption from my mothers drugs
and yet I was brought back
I think when they revived me they left my soul behind
floating out somewhere just out of reach
maybe it could've been retrieved
but I grew in a childhood of an angry mother and an abusive brother
I was told I was nothing and I think it's true
now I live in this place where my heart is ice
and I protect anyone from knowing me with walls
so scared that if they see me they'll turn into my mother's words
in a world full of judgement isn't this true?
maybe I should've been left dead
I was never ment to live
now I'd gladly embrace death, my old friend.
I would've been saved from that childhood of being hit for simple mistakes
I was just a kid
but I was never allowed innocence, that was taken away
and now here I am, I'm still just a kid
but the knowledge and the memories are enough to turn my heart to stone, so cold
and as I write the tears pour down my face
I wish I could wash away the memories with these tears
but I can't
and I'll never let anyone see me cry.
I was born into a life of death
there's no time to cry.

This is a beautiful expression of what it is your soul wants to say. A wall can't hide THOSE words.No one deserves the life you've lived,but I truly hope in your poetry,you find some sort of comfort. And through it all...
you will gain strength...to continue in this
very cruel world. I wish you all the best!!!
Angel always......godpeed...... joni

This is a wonderful write, you conveyed your pain very well,, but you are here and you have much talent,, I believe from what I read here and in the forums that you have great possibilities. Prove your family wrong. Be the best you can be I believe in you

I am sorry to hear that you were placed in the house hold you were placed in but I believe that you are a strong person to have made it this far. I know you will make it through the storm and come out above your family. Learn from their mistakes and just know you are only in their controle physically and by the law till you are 18. I hope that your poems allow you an exscape from reality. GodBless..`daydreamer`
