We, the outsiders, do not understand

by bethany   Nov 1, 2007


Pain lurks inside of my soul
anger and rage enter the path of my blood
fear becomes a part of my weak mind
uncontrollable madness
strength exits through my frail pores
i have failed myself and all others
i am a disgrace to society
my life becomes an army against me
i struggle to survive
constantly waiting to implode
life has become a luxury
i cant find my way out
i do not feel alive
i am not alive
not yet
when the breath stops peace will start
the machines are who i am
controlling my every move
testing my ability to survive
no escape
no rescue
my life slowly fades away
and as i gear up for yet another battle
i fall into serenity
no sleep tonight
no sleep tonight

I Wrote this for my friend. its my first poem in a while. sorry. comment. ill take the good. ill take the bad. much love.

    i am a disgrace to society
