Inescapable End

[latinlovegod99]

Long time listner, first time poster. Wrote this poem when it seemed the whole world was asleep and I had no one to listen to my thoughts about a year ago.
"And thus begins my downpour
Of emotional rain
Flowing torrents
Of unbearable pain
What did I do
To deserve my life?
Filled with despair
And neverending strife
Try to make it go away
So I can have one day
Where the world is mine
But I can't
So I smile
And my friends think I'm fine
But my self-value is defaced
And I turn to self-violence
My words now replaced
By my deadly silence."

This was powerful. I can feel your emotions so strongly through your work.
Welcome to Words.

So I smile
And my friends think I'm fine
i think you and i could relate. and meeting you, i know the smile you are talking about. it looks so good on you, its sad knowing that it might just be a coverup.
i go about almost everyday of my life with that same smile, that people adore and cant get enough of, but is really just a show. and i think to myself how blind they must be to not see through it.
since you are new to the Words forum, i hope you will find here what i have found... a place where i can say exactly how i feel with no forced smile... and i feel so much better afterwards. you'll find the people here are so awesome. i cant wait to read more of your work sweetie.
keep smilin.. someday you wont have to pretend.
