Broken Inside

by erikka baby   Jun 5, 2005


I`m broken inside.
Tattered and worn.
My eyes do not cry.
But my heart is torn.
Cutting myself.
To ease the pain.
Just causes more
And that`s just the same.

I feel all alone.
With no one but me.
I`m so broken inside.
But no one can see.
I fake a smile.
So no one will worry.
But inside I cry.
If they knew
they`d just feel sorry.

So I bottle up the pain.
And cry myself to sleep.
On the inside I`m wounded.
My scars are so deep.
Sometimes it gets to me.
I hate being alone.
With no one to turn to.
Not even by phone.
So I sit in my room.
I`m broken inside.
On the outside I smile.
On the inside I cry.

    This one sounds more like a narrator speaking, and not you directly. Try doing that in your poems more. Try to make the voice (or the "I" in the poem) sound like a narrator and not the writer. That will help get your poem across to more people. And it helps get you better at writing.

    You really got it down right. Again. Keep writing like this...and if you still feel like this...well just know you can always come to me, and I'll listen.
