Hollow Eyes
~Your Empty Stare~
dont know where i'm going
but i sure as hell know where i'm coming from
rose out've the dust
worked twice as hard to get half as far
dont you dare look my way
with your bleached white fake nice smile
i'm not interested in your shit
so turn the fuck away
Cause I Am
everything you've alwasy wanted
what you've always thought about at night
laying in your bed
rapeing your mind
cant stop the want
the need
for something so wrong
it feels so right
And I Am
Everything they dont want you to be
all the things they tell you not to see
on tv
stick it to the man
fight whenever you can
These things
And so much more
That I Am
Yeah I Am
Everything that you could never be
buttoned down so hard its amazing you can breath
do they tell you to shut up
maybe to grow up
hell at this rate
you aint never gonna get up
dont know where i'm going
but it sure as hell aint gonna be near you
suffocating like laying in a coffin
girl better start clawing your way out
your not gonna be breathin much soon
and dont wait
for no knight to come and save you
its not gonna be me
and he aint never gonna come
come on
not like you were part of the dust
settling in your lungs
i rose out've that dust
i fought it all
never gave up
never stoped to crawl
got up everytime
and gave them hell
twice as hard
dont talk to me about hard times
you've had everything you've wanted
born and raised
princess of LA
you think you know
know what its like
to grow up without a daddy
who was more intersted in makin other babies
wonderin when you'd get to eat again
seein your mommy knocked out and barely movin
can you even imagine
workin at three
to help support a never meant to be family
all the stares
but none of them cared
thats how i learned
not shed a tear
your just like them
takin a look and closin the book
dont care whats inside
just like the way it looks to your eyes
dont know where i'm goin
but i sure as hell know where i'm comin from
fact is girl
that you DONT
so dont EVER pretend you know me
that you know what i'm goin through
or gone through
you aint NEVER gonna know
thats just how they want it
they dont want you to speak
they just want to be heard
whats in their best interest
is this robot/clone girl
so go back to your life
lay back in your box
let them shovel the dirt
and put on the locks
to be honest this was an attempt at rap.
thought it would be fun to give it a shot.
and i am pretty tired so i'm loopy and really dont care if its crappy.
tell me what you think.
and dont forget to check out the post below this one
it is also new.
please comment both.
~love ya'~

Wrote this a while ago but never got the chance to put it up so here it is.
Crawling
You assume my strenth
Is yours whenever you want.
And I am glad to give
But sometimes you ask to much
And it seems that you forget.
I am not God.
I am not a hero
I can not heal your scars
And just forget my own.
I stumble.
I fall down.
I get ripped apart.
I have pick myself up
Alone.
On hands and knees I crawl
Drowning in crimson blood.
How can I offer you a hand
When I'm still weeping on the ground.
How can I help you
When I can't even stand?
Carved from stone
I must be
Cant let the world
See me shed one single tear.
I must be strong
When others fall.
Must be the rock they lean against
When things start to look down.
But its hard to go on for so long
I've seen your pain.
I've tried to help it fade.
Committed to myself to it every day.
But when I need to dress my wounds
And wash the caked on blood away
You deem me uncaring.
Even though I saved your soul
From certain death.

Walking down this hall
Where it leads I've yet to find.
Strang how no sound follows,
Not even footsteps.
As if blanketed in snow.
Strange how no shadow is cast
Upon the velvet walls.
Yet light enough there is to see.
Light so bright it nearly blinds.
Still my path is clear.
There are no doors at either side
Only this narrow coridor.
I'd turn back,
But nothing is left behind.
The path I've walked fades as my footsteps
Fall.
What lurks behind I do not know.
What darkness follows
Waiting to feed troubles me not.
I do not fear to turn my back
On what was.

If you visit this world, you've no doubt noticed that I have lately been breaking the patter for this world. The original was a quote followed three poems. Well, quotes are just cheap ways of stating the obvious so I will no longer post them. The reason I posted three poems at a time was because I had alot of them at the time, and now I've run out. So now the focus is to produce quality poetry, not quantity.
And yes, this was just an excuse to make a post.

Well hello again my dear dear friends
So sorry bout the stains
See last night I was up till dawn
Why? I cant explain.
See things are not as comfortable
No things are not so great.
So put away your apologys
It really is to late.
And if you came looking for
Someone to hold you close and tight
Ya better keep on moving on
Cause I'm really not quite right.
And time will tell if this is worth
The blood I've yet to spill.
But something tells me its quite all right.
So go on, drink your fill.
Its not really your concern
What I do when light fades.
No you shouldnt know one damn thing
About these rusted blades.
