I don't need anyone to break me, I can do it myself.

I don't need anyone to break me, I can do it myself.

A Poem by SadBones

Empty Creature
You try to replace the pain 
With material things, and temporary people
Or bottle it up
Until you explode

Curled up in a ball, wishing to disappear
impulsively 
Trying to fill this void in your soul
Because the emptiness hurts

It bounces of the walls of your hollow vessel
The pain echoes inside your emptiness
looking for a place to settle
Looking for something to placate it

Unresolved pain turns into anger
It maliciously ridicules you
Degrades you into hopelessness

And that's how the cycle goes

I really like this, especially the third stanza. The last line really adds heaps of emotion as well.
