PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I hide my arms

And no one sees

The pain I feel

The regret I keep

Choices yeah I have made a few

But then I’m sure you already knew

You stand back and criticize

You can’t even look me in the eye

I can take a beating

I can fight back

But you hurt me inside

Emotional strength I lack

I am breaking down

From all the stress

Lost relationships

My life’s a mess

Don’t you judge

Until you live MY life

Hold on a second

While I grab this knife
