Agony

Agony

A Poem by AreWeBothCrazy

I've been looking for answers I know I can't find
I've got my finger on the trigger and the trigger on my mind
All the knowledge in the world will never help me understand
Yet I fall to my knees with blood on my hands
My veins are ripped wide open as I give myself to you
I bleed to fight the pain of every day that still rings true
Courage keeps me going but it's love that makes me breathe
I'll find myself an angel - sun doesn't reach six deep
Waves crash inside but I've got masks to show my friends
I've still got miles to go but there's a cliff before the end
"Broken" says it all but there's no reason there for me
Crying over the spilled milk, it shows me that I'm weak
My mind says "Just let go" but everything else says "Hold on"
Internal struggle battles for whatever one is wrong
My pen is there to keep me just a few feet from the edge
My heart is there to fight everything running through my head
I've never felt just what it's like to be truly alone
But I have fallen done and I have lost my way to go
My senses work just fine but I don't know what's happening
And though I'd rather die I guess I'll live in agony...

Hey, you added me as a friend so I figured I'd check out your writing. WHOA. It's like... I swear to god you know me. It's like as if you've been traaped inside my head with nothing better to do then write down my every emotion... holy...crap...
To be clear, I LOVED it.
The only thing I would work on is the line "Crying over the spilled milk, it shows me that I'm weak" Just the spilled milk part seems a bit clichee to me but it's not too big of a deal... I'd suggest trying to find a replacement but litterally, just the spilled milk, the rest of the line is nice :)
So I seriously LOVED it... I feel understood for once...
Thanks for the moment of sunshine in this day that's turning out seriously screwed... :P
Great poem :)
