Know-It-All-Shrink

Contributed by teagy03 on Tuesday, 27th July 2004 @ 10:41:31 PM in AEST
Topic: DarkPoetry

I’ll admit I’ve got a problem
Many people do
But I don’t need some undergraduate
Who thinks that they know you

Tell me that I need to forgive
The bad things in my life
All this psychobabble bull *****
Tempts me to heat up my knife

And burn the only layers
Of beautiful skin I have left
Cause my body’s ripped and broken
From my constant burning death

You may just be a learner
Or you may think you know it well
But you should feel the agony
Of being in this hell

Do you wanna know my secrets
So you can further your career
To help in your profession
Well, my secrets are all here

My family, they all hurt me
My friends think I don’t care
Someone close to me harms himself
I’ve got a lot to share

My dads an alcoholic
My mother is a whore
Another fulla raped me
Need I say much more?

Ive tried to kill myself before
With tablets and a rope
And with all that life has dealt me
I’ve given up all hope

Ive had a bit of counselling
Ive admitted my mistakes
But I can’t admit to everything
A bit of time it takes

Ive got a lot of anger
All bottled up inside
But now you’ve burst my bubble
And it’s just too big to hide

I know you’re only trying
To help me get a grip
But you cannot help everyone
I am a sinking ship

You know how to listen
But you just don’t understand
If you didn’t preach to me so much
You could seriously be my friend

But now I’m a ***** adult
Life comes in twists and turns
But the one thing I’m not ashamed of
Is the way my skin I burn

So don’t preach your learned bull *****
That you believe is true
Cause as soon as I need some help
I wont ***** talk to you.

I loved it, you entangled me with your words, but in a good way. Thank you for writing a poem more than four stanzas long unlike a lot of these other clowns on here. --the Moth

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©
