A Poem by Willow
"

I guess you could say this is just all my thoughts without being sugar coated. Im not sure what to give it for a title though so if anyone has some thoughts on what to call this by all means im lisening.

"
Lock myself up
throw away the key
try all you want
you cant get to me
so much pain
i just cant undo
you say you want to help
but can i trust you
will you build me up
just to knock me down
when i'm at my worst
will you still be around
when you see me cry
will you turn away
or will you tell me
it will all be ok
all these thoughts
i cant contain
there's no one else
but me to blame
lonely nights
emptiness sets in
the battle inside
i just cant win
hope fades fast
like a falling star
i often wonder
how i got this far
i look toward the heavens
i fall to my knees
i pray to God
help me please
dont leave me here
all alone
like awkward silence
on the telaphone
out of sight
but still on my mind
wish i could turn back
the hands of time
over and over again
you tell me to talk
but where do i begin
the light at the end of the tunnel
is starting to fade
now i gotta sleep
in the bed that i made
stuck in the darkness
i cant find my way
will i stay alive
to see another day
the world keeps turning
but time stands still
the knot in my stomach
is making me ill
there ain't nothing they can do
but give me another pill
so many secrets
kept inside
after awhile
i believe my own lies
a face in the mirror
the image is distorted
a loss of innocence
but it never got reported
just a little child
too scared to run
nothing i could do
but watch my dreams come undone
six feet under
is were you lay
so many things
i never got to say
you walked away
like you didnt care
how you could you
just leave me there
for everthing you do
a price must be paid
before you knew it
a decision had
been made
to the streets
is where you turned
from your mistakes
i will learn
i'll better myself
just for you
a higher power
will get me trhough
with folded hands
to you hear my prayer
even though you're gone
i know you're still there
it's funny how life just isn't fair
such a little girl cursed with disease
with ignorant blind eyes
thats all the world sees
you must stay away
for i am unclean
soap and water
cant wash away
a demond that can not
be seen
ssshhh, you hear that sound?
that's me in the darkness
slowly breaking down
tears are falling down like rain
numbness breaks thorugh
to releve the pain
twisted confusion
rattles my fucked up brain
i sit here in silance
staring at the phone
i hear you knocking
at my door
but there ain't no one home
there ain't no key
for you to find
" i just want to help"
man, quit f*****g with
my mind
you too will run
just give it some time
you can't fool me
with your lying eyes
i see right through you
you can't disguise
i hear you talking
but it ain't nothing but lies
go on, rip out my heart
break it a little more
screaming out loud
until my lungs are sore
push the knife deeper
until i fall to the floor,
lock myself up
throw away the key
try all you want
you can't get to me!
