I'm My Own Thief of Time
(A Poem About Myself)
I've got  emotional scars.

Yes you've heard correctly.
A
normal 15 year old is corrupted.
...But aren't we all?

My eyes are dark and deep,
but they shine brightly sometimes.
They have more of an
understanding now,
since I have
shed my cocoon
and entered the mind and body
of this 15 year old.
Whether that's
good or bad,
I'm not sure yet.
Remember to ask me in a few years.

Other than my
dark nature
and my
writing addiction,
I'm like any other.
I read the
fashion magazines,
the horror books,
the comics.


I love rock music 
(especially
KoRn and OLP),
and the off-key singing of children.
I'm in love with Heavenly Hash ice cream,
and lemonade.
And if I wasn't in school,
I'd be running the
cotton candy machine
at the fair
(for I
love that too).

I've got a name
tattooed
into my heart,
although I know I shouldn't.
It'll only come back and
haunt me,
but it's not something one can choose.
If you know what I mean.

I feel
safe in my flesh,
noone can
bug me that way.
I'm my own
imaginary friend.
I'm my own
thief of time.


I believe that
age is only a number,
and that my number's a
fraud,
For how could one be 15 in body,
and 100 in
mind?

I think that we've all been
brainwashed
to ignore the
simple things in life.
A beautiful sunset.
A face full of pride.
The smell of fresh baked bread.
A child's giggle.
A hug.


Selfishness and jealousy
are my pet peeves,
although I admit I've experienced both.

I think the
best when I'm asleep,
and when I'm all alone.
I
love the dark.
I'm a dreamer......

My
favourite place in the world
is in my basement.
Cool and sullen,
empty and alone.

I'm left with only my imagination.

I have an
Angel on one shoulder,
and a
Devil on the other;
I continue on my merry way.
Don't question my
(in)sanity :
it's all I have left.
