Bleeding heart
How many times can you kill someone before they die?
how many truths do you need to say before you’re expected to lie?
How many more scars until you actually try?
But what i truly wonder the most is why…
Now my eyes bloody from crying,
Voice shaky from breaking,
Heart heavy, quietly dying,
With every breath I'm taking.
It feels like a dream, i’m thinking “this cannot be real”…all these voices, all of this darkness
Nothing i feel.
I reach out, but the shadows lingen. Cold and unkind.
Whispers surround me, pulling me deeper,
Lost in my mind.
This isn’t me, i used to be sweet little kid.
That this is my fault i refuse to admit
The weight of the world on my shoulders has slid,
Changing my colors, but deep down, I knew.
I didn’t break—this storm wasn’t mine,
I’m caught in the waves of someone else’s design.
raised myself without parents in this burning house
Read the rest of the poem Show less
Had both but none
and now you blame for the rage that isn’t even mine
A fire started long before my time.
I carried the weight of wounds I didn't make,
Grew up in shadows, forced to bend, not break.
You point fingers at the flames, but can’t you see?
I was just surviving
Demons you gave me that i fight alone
Than questioning why the hell am i so cold?
In a house full of pathetic “victims” MY pain is never noticed
Except when it’s shown on my body, blood dropping, quietly screaming…
You only see it when it spills, when it's real,
But never in the silence where I learned not to feel.
You point to my scars, but never ask why—
It’s easier to judge than to hear how I cry.
I carry this weight, your ghosts in my mind,
While you stay blind to the damage behind.
Yet still, I’m here, though breaking apart—
A silent storm with a bleeding heart.

"I feel the angst and suffering here. The message is clear and the language is strong. I do agree that the form makes the poem a bit hard to read and understand. I also agree with Geezer's suggestion to break the lines i…" -

"agree with the A.I. in respect to the spelling errors. I would add that in making the poem more inviting to read, you should put the lines in quatrains, [lines of four]. Is the meter, [beat] supposed to be like rap? As…" -
