The Real Me
by ~Laurine R.

When you look at me do you focus on the inner or outer side of who I am? Most likely it is the outer me you see. But, while that may not be the super model size three it is all that that part of me can be. On the inside I have felt the pain but have grown much stronger from it. That part of me that I can see is beautiful, caring, needing, and strong. It is waiting for you to notice it in hopes it will over power the weight you see outside of me. You cause me much pain by ignoring the "real" me. The one who needs you to love me and not ridicule who I cannot be. So someday whether it be today or years from now will you stop hating me outside and accept me inside. Otherwise my existence may run out due to the pain this cruel world has forced me to carry every day. Honestly, the inside is the real me, please accept it so I can.

Friend
by ~Laurine R.

A word used by many but meant by nobody. Why is it that a word that should be so appreciated is used to lead people on. People who are followed by deep secrets and pain who only wish to have a "friend" to confide in. I have often thought of many people as friends yet they don't ever show the same kindness back. Sometimes I go home and as I watch the TV I see shows and friends. Yet when I try and remember the times I have done those same things I can't picture them. Everyday I am haunted by the fact that in this world I am all alone. Have any of my peers felt this? Few have and few can feel my pain. I wish that for one week they had to look amongst them and see people making weekend plans and again you've been excluded. It hurts to always sit at home knowing people who call you a friend really dislike your presence. Would it kill someone to invite a new person to hang out with their group for a weekend? Nobody has ever wanted a friend like me. It is today at this very minute that I withdraw my ability to use that word "friend." So for anyone I talk to I see you as a person, your status as a friend is yet to be determined. For life is filled with pain that I must bear by the words I hear from all of you. I wish you knew the real me and someday maybe you'll care enough to try.

DON'T BLINK
by mylene

only darkness now a black hole up in space who i thought i was disappeared with no trace my body is only its outer shell its hell the more of me lost the deeper i sink when im finally consumed i think ill be gone in a blink!

NO WAY OUT
by mylene

In The mind of madness where darkness always breeds on the wall its written no madman shall be freed you grab yourself in terror and from you comes a scream your mind is forever twisted if only this was a dream trapped within yourself and dying and no one else will ever see

I was in the MSC @ TX A&M one day, and I saw a sculpture called "Insect in Tree" by the late Berthold Schiwetz, which explained physically how I feel alot. Hope ya'll like it!

Love to All ; drain

I'm an insect caught,
My wings in the tree,
Struggling so hard,
Only to become entangled vigorously,
I try to break free (!!!),
But the more the branches tangle,
More the leaves trap me.

Nothing
by ~..::Paige Iris Rain::..~

Hands are Cold
But colder than usual
As cold as a murder's heart
Vision is blurry
Like always
But never like this
Mind is racing with thoughts
Thoughts of death
Thoughts of love
Thoughts of anything you can think of
Thoughts of nothing
Because that's what is there
NOTHING
Nothing in your heart
Cause of all the times it has been broken
Nothing in you head
Cause of the drugs you once held in you hand
Nothing to live for cause you want to be dead
That is what you are
That is what you see
When you look in the mirror
You see.......
NOTHING
When you try to find it in your heart
You dig deep, deeper then anyone could ever think
But you find nothing
When there is nothing you think you should die
So take my life for there is nothing for me to live for

Untitled
by ~..::Paige Iris Rain::..~

I wake up in the morning
That light in my body has gone out
I wake up in the morning
With the feeling of death at the end of my bed
I wake up with the feeling of an unknown force pulling at my feet
A force so strong I feel I can't defeat
Hands tide down feet glued to the floor
You don't move back but you don't move forward
You believe you can't fall anymore but then you do
Your screams are like nails on a chalkboard
But no one can hear you scream
You want it to stop
Then ....BAM
You shatter on the floor
You ask yourself is it the end or the beginning
Before it happen you were one
Something whole that always knew what had to be done
Where you pushed?
Was it your fault or did it just happen for no reason?
But you knew it was coming but you wouldn't accept it
You'd creep closer and closer to the edge every day
You started to wobble
You started to slip
Then head first you went
You' were heading for something unknown
Like walking into a dark unfamilar hallway
You don't know what is coming next
Then you fell ..........CRASH
That is when you broke
Is it the end or is it the beginning
Life or death is the question
Take it or leave it.
Oh what to do what to choose

I Don't Want to Grow Up to be Like You
by ~..::Paige Iris Rain::..~

He will ask you why did you do it?
You would say because I had no reason to live
But that isn't what I would tell him
Because I have everything anyone could ever want
But I would say I was bored
I had nothing better to do
I just figured death would be more exciting
Maybe have more meaning
Why should I live to die
Why not just end it now so I don' t have to live
They would say I did it for attention
That I had actually no reason
That I had a good life
That is true I have a good life
It is just that I don't want to grow up to be like you
I hate you
So why not just end it now
Get it over with
Why should I end up that way
Please just let me go
I don't want to grow up to be like you
Broken and unglued
Why should I live to die
It will always be the same as before
It never changes
Everyone is the same
I wish I could be diffrent then you
But I know I will end up like you
Broken and unglued
