If you don't learn to write your own story, someone else will write it for you

53 poems·Since December 2014

Most of my poems are about pain and hurt, but i am actually not in that much pain. I need to write these so i don't feel the things I write about. i write, generally, in all lowercase because im a rather lazy person :) it takes too much time to hit the Shift key every line. so no hate on my grammer errors, i know theyre there, i just dont care.

do you?

December 15, 2014

do you care?

do you notice?

do you wonder?

do you?

 

do you notice my scars?

upon my legs and arms and stomach?

do you ever wonder why they are there?

do you even care?

 

when you look at me do you cry?

for the pain that ive gone through?

do you ever stop and wonder?

what pain im going through?

 

do you think its your fault?

do you try to make amends?

or do you keep on walking?

but turn around and stare?

 

do you see what ive written?

in blood with blade?

do you stop and try to figure?

what am i trying to say?

 

do you try to help?

or just stand and laugh?

do you try to cure?

or do you add to the madness?
