REAL

Contributed by rhei76 on Thursday, 3rd June 2004 @ 09:38:09 AM in AEST
Topic: DarkPoetry



I've been Broken
broken nose
broken ribs
fractured skull
for my Lips

I've been Hurt
hurt by weapons
hurt by fist
Fractured pride
but the Pain never stays

I've been Rot
rotting emotions
rotting flesh
fractured by thought
but I always Heal

I've been Bashed
by authority
stabbed by friends
spit on by family
Just to Breath again

I've been Hate
hated by those who've Seen me
hated by those who wanted to Love me
fractured by the Scenary
Giving up so early

I've been Self Destruct
wanting to die but without that luck
wanted to fly instead of being called a
I've wanted to leave, but my Lord has kept me
far from my Death

I've been High
Strung out on
while Chasing the Dragon
and eating the Pills
Tha've kept me Alive

I've tried to taste the last of rain
Razors, Knives, & every kind of Drug
Tattoos and Art
Piercings and Wounds
that Help me feel the Pain

The only thing that is Real
and I'm sad to say
I'm scared I'm Still
I'm steal
Here

For love of Christ
or Weakness of heart
You must realize
I am Self Desruct
so thru this Darkness I walk

with praise to God
& all things Good
I keep these things Dear,
like I know I Should
For when the day, It comes
I know I'll Burn
& I will Feel
all the Things
all the Pain
that helped keep me Real

this was so emotional. I could imagine the images of the beatings the addictions, the pain. It is so sad but so real. In life we go through things that make us who we are. You have gone through much pain, but look at the good person which has evolved.

Like stepping on a nail. So much pain here. God is the great healer. I know that so well.
A very powerful write.
