Other People's Poetry

As it gets sent to me, I'll be posting other people's poetry and such here. Please do not use any of these works without getting permission from the author. The pieces that are listed as being by anonymous are done so by request of the author.


When I am silent, I am screaming,
Why can't you hear what I don't say?
I tell you so much when I am quiet,
Why don't you ever seem to understand?

There's a rage that flows in blood,
A sacrifice that no one understands.
There are tears that I can't cry,
except in this redder hue.

When you knew, you just didn't get it,
And now you have forgotten.
Why didn't you help me then?
Why must I struggle now?

It's been years, but now it's back,
demanding it's pay, it's due.
I have to answer when it calls,
I have to give in, I have no choice.

SIRENS

a siren rings in the distance,
as the young girl cries,
an overdose is the cause,
that made her boyfriend die.

the ambulance races on,
as the young girl dies,
she slit her wrists,again and again,
while her boyfriend watched and cried.

Eternal Sin

as the blade goes down upon my skin,
I begin to feel alive again,
I cut until my arm is bleeding,
I cut until my arm is red.

the ritual begins again,
I put the blade upon my skin,
I cut,it hurts, I bleed again,
this is my eternal sin.
