Am I a coward?
Or am I strong?
The pain that has towered
Dealt with for so long

Yet, I'm still here
Is it because fear?

I've wanted to die
I can't help but wonder why
Why haven't I?

Do I persevere?
Life, do I hold dear?

Or am I afraid?
Of being laid
Down in a tomb?
Is it worse than my room?

So am I a coward?
Am I so weak?
Or am I strong
In the face of a life soured?
I can't help but think
About my song

The song of my life
Could it sing strength?
Somehow my knife
Shining at length
Doesn't seem to believe
I'll be remembered that way
So I would conceive
Strength isn't what people would say
When describing me
So cowardly then
Is what I must be
For not bringing my end

And I still don't know
If I'll ever go
Will I ever confide
In my suicide?
Is suicide cowardly, or an act of strength? Is living on? Could both be either? Which am I? I can't bring myself to believe the better. So then, am I a coward for living, or would I be a coward for dying?
So many people seem to insist
On hurting me more than I can take
And the regret that I feel every day
As all I can do is attempt to resist
I try to improve for my own sake
But they always manage to downplay

So here I am just cutting away
Because I have to make myself pay
While all they do and all they say
I know is my fault in it's own way

The burns that scar me deep inside
The hurt that I can no longer hide
Because day in and because day out
Hateful words they always shout

I need to find a way to survive
As it cuts and chips away at my hide
I wish that I could find a ride
To take me where I don't have to abide

People will always have hateful words
Many I wish that I hadn't heard
Maybe then I'd know what to do
To help out me and to help out you
With this hate that I've always known
Then there'd be no scars to be shown

So tell me how am I to resist
The hateful words that always persist
From hateful people who mostly insist
That I don't have the right to exist
People in pain over love that's been lost
Crying and sighing because of high cost
And when I see this I can't help but think
How lucky am I to have never formed a link

I've not felt of passion stinging the blood
I've never known ecstasy streaming in flood
Though too young may I be to have met love
If ever I met them I'd respond with a shove

Not better to have loved and lost is what I find
Whilst it leaves you too often in shatters behind
So I'll continue my way without such a grace
Because I have heard how it ends in disgrace

I have no dependency on love's cruel infection
I would rather I choose mine own direction
So I'll never have to be so weakly dependent
And I won't have to wallow in fatal repentant

Love will never be right for me in this world
I'd rather stay hidden with soul deeply curled
So no I don't understand the pain of your heart
And I never will or else it would tear me apart
Of it is NOT "better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all," then I shall remain guarded and will never seek the passion others crave. I will not be taken down by such forces. I simply refuse it!
No one doth care
To remember mine name
No one doth care
Of from which I came

I come and I go
And as I grow
There are none who follow
As I stride in straight rows

Some may I like
And some may I hate
But always in psych
I know mine own fate
So weather I wish
Or weather I don't
I always do wisp
Away though I won't
Be remembered by any
In these places I go
For as I see many
None do I know
Written with a more old-English feel, just for the hell of it.
A calf without milk
Ripped from the womb
Mother's hair like silk
Lay stiff in the tomb

And father's embrace
To go up in flames
Our house to misplace
In a lion's main

My siblings so dear
Strung far apart
Lost and in fear
Rip out my heart

The system tells not
Of where we should go
It makes me burn hot
Through rain and in snow

Lost were the lambs
Without mother's kind face
Lost were us lambs
Without father's sturdy place

Scattered are we
My siblings and me
No place to go
Nothing to be
True story bro.

We all give labels to everyone
All of us, let's have some fun
Let's go out and **** someone
Who hurts you, don't let them run

Make all pay for labels begun.
Any insult you could throw my way
Is true.

I'm worthless in every single day
Who knew?

When I'm near children I shy away
Not coo.

And when I'm angry, terrible things I say
You'll rue.

I **** sunshine's shining rays
With blue.

About people, every waking moment pray
They'll shoo.

And every sin which others lay
I do.

So every insult thrown my way
Is undeniably true.
