If Only For Tomorrow

~ GothicBlack ~




What precisely am I suppose to think
When I can’t catch my breathe
And my hands
Don’t feel a thing
For I am not beautiful
I am not pretty
Keep your filthy hands away



What am I suppose to do
When i'm drowning inside myself
And my head
It wont stop hurting
Damn these migraines
For I am not beautiful
I am not pretty
Keep all of your thoughts to yourself



What was it I was supposed to be seeing?
For I’m blind to my mind’s own inner eye
And my senses
Are not working so well
Kinda tipsy turvy
For I am not beautiful
I am not pretty
Keep all of your feelings inside




What is going on in my life?
Someone please inform me
Because I can not understand
All these feelings and fears
They’re tearing me apart inside
I’ve been ripped to my very being
To the fiber of who I am
For I am NOT beautiful
Nor am I pretty
And because of that fact
I lay here all alone tonight
Sleeping with my horrors
And all my draining sorrows
And I wait, praying for the morrow
If only the sun could rise a little faster
For my heart wont last that long
I can't wait that long. . .
For i am not beautiful
And i am not pretty
I am simply myself
I am nothing

    i think this poem explains so much pain and self conflict.. you have a way to express emotions, with out really using actions.. you are at the top 5 list for my favorite writers, and this is just another one of the reasons why

    jeez..this was sombre riddled from beginning to end..you sadly repeat this 'I mam not beautiful, etc' like a mantra..i suppose it becomes the truth regardless of what others say anyway..holy heckers.
