Don't Lie to Yourself

by Second to None   Mar 6, 2010


Do you think I don't notice how you treat me?
Your words like daggers deep within my chest
Your ignorant taunt hangs above my heavey head

I pretend I don't care but really, who am I kidding?
I guess the correct answer would be myself
But how can somebody ignore something like this?

You treat me like a freaking disease
What did I ever do to you, please let me know
I don't know why you still make me cry,

I feel so stupid and weak but i still can't speak,
Of what kind of hell you have put me though
These past years have been so bad, its scary

And you don't give a damnn, that you made it hell
But its OK, because you hate is making me stronger
Maybe next time this happens I will hold on longer

But if I don't get thought this don't fret about me
Cause I honestly don't want to be here anymore
I'm not crazy or phyco, I just want out

Everyone says hold on and look on the bright side
But is answer hold on to what? And what bright side?
I am nothing anymore, but and empty box of thought

In my depression I begin to rot in my tears
I'm sorry you can't stand the sight of my face
Am I really that ugly that you can't look at me?

Just today in the hall you hid you face with a book,
And all I did was walk by you, I didn't say a word
Yes, I admit it, even I get hurt sometimes

And when it happens so much it builds up,
I'm afraid that one day I might just explode
So now I always tell my self the same true words
"Don't lie to yourself, your nothing, and no one will ever actually want you."

    Okay, um what to say...well first off I'll say I enjoyed it. Then I'll go on to say the it didn't seem to flow quite as well as your other poems that I've read, it seemed to randomly start and stop rhyming in places which made it seem kind of disjointed. But it was still enjoyable to read and very relate-able.I hope you don't really believe that your nothing. You are an excellent poet and I'm sure you have many other talents as well as people that care about you.

    4/5 and only because I'm comparing it to your other writing.
