Nothing compared to you.


Self-Esteem: A Proven Program of Cognitive Techniques for Assessing, Improving, and Maintaining Your Self-Esteem My torn and draped clothing,
That clings to me effortlessly
and hides the bruises lurking beneath
because of the fear of being seen,
Is nothing compared
to the disguise that I've been forcing

My mendacious smile

That's affixed itself to my face
and flashes at everything to cover up the truth,
because I can't manage a real smile,
Is nothing compared
to the happiness that I've been faking.

My absence from normality

That's increasing dramatically
and causing obtrusive awareness and concern,
Is nothing compared to the absence in my heart
That's gaping widely from the shattered pieces
that have gone astray.

My choking eyes

that are wallowing in the puddles
of my wretched heartache
are nothing compared to the times
that they've drowned in the rivers
of life's inflicted storm.

So stop putting on that constant act of concern,

because behind that mask
that you are hiding behind,
I can see that you honestly don't care for me at all.
And no act of your false salvation,
is ever going to save me from your pain.

Strange Conformity

Observe the streets with a scarce amount of effort,
then summarize in your mind what you see.
That kid all alone,dressed in black on the corner
Is an Emo 100 % guaranteed.
 
Observe the darkened path with your weary eyes,
and frown at that girl ,ever so skinny and frail.
Then quickly make a choice out of anorexic or bulimic,
assume quickly only with with little detail.
 
Question those pretty girls smiling politely,
smile back, but be careful not to adore.
Because after all, it is classed as a sin,
to be playing cat and mouse with a whore.
 
Look down on that boy with his journal,
be sure to judge him without any delay.
Just look at his glasses and his shimmering smile,
its by far obvious, that he is gay.
 
So abuse and criticize our small society
because you know it's not acceptable to be defined.
Just tear apart our feelings, and inflict your dreaded words
because it won't be long till we all commit suicide
