Steel, so sharp so lovely
Piercing my skin, so soft and scarred
Blood, tickling down
Flowing like a river, slow and steady
Pain, so relieving so sweet
A candy land, just for me
Failure, always there
Causing the pain, dragging me under
Steel, on my flesh on my heart
Causing me to hide, from all who care
Hiding, from them, from me
Only a shell, of who I was
When your the only thing I can think of, life becomes difficult
Knowing you won't have me, it kills me
I try to be everything you like, but it doesn't work
You told me you cared, guess it was a lie
I told you the same, wishing I could say more
Thoughts of you keep me up, with nothing but a smile
Wishing this would just stop, not wanting it to
I just want you to tell me the truth, no riddles
Wanting you to call, afraid that you will
Why deny it anymore, I'm afraid to tell you
Afraid of the hurt, glad its there
Maybe saying it will help, talking myself out of it
I know we could work, or we could fail
But I'll say it anyway, not backing down
I do love you, and you know it
Please don't deny it, it kills you too
Just tell me once, and I'll be through
I'll say it again, just to be sure
I love you, now please tell me the same

A love letter from you to whom ever. Very powerful an moving piece indeed Bravo!
Alone in a crowd of strangers
Searching for a place to go
Faces fly by in a mad blur of motion
So many faces in this place
None seem to see me
But all of them stare
Looking only at a freak with dark lips
Not looking at the soul inside
People rushing to get away
Face of terror, fleeing from someone
No one wants to stop and answer me
No one seems to care
Running away from the freak with black lips
Running from a broken soul
None of them offered to fix it
None of them seemed to care
Alone in this ghost town
Not another soul in sight
Finally not feeling so alone
Finally someone seems to care
Not a single face staring
At the freak in black
No faces rush by, no one seems to dare

Until one day you meet that one soul that is not afraid of who you are an smile with noticeable fangs. For its him that truthfully cares.
I can always count on you,
To be truthful with me
Always know, how you feel
But for once, I want a lie.
For once, tell me I look good
For once, look at me with pride
For once, I want you to twinkle
Just this one time, tell me a lie
One that won't hurt me,
But make me smile inside
I can always count on you
But for once I don't want to.
