Poetry: Dark poems

Break me-
I'm no good whole
When things are going well
There's no cause to fight

Break me-
There's nothing else to blame
No one here but you and me
I'll take responsibility

Break me-
There's a message for you
When you turn away from God
It's you with your back to Him

Break me-
It'll feel good
You can look in the mirror
And see something you've always dreaded

Break me-
Undo the man you wanted to be
Give in to your anger, hatred, and fear
Follow through with the punch

Break me-
Bruise your knuckles on my face
Shatter me like a window
Slash your hands on the shards

Break me-
Look at me as I lay there
Battered and bleeding
And know that you did this

Break me-
And every other promise you made
The promise you'd never hurt me
The promise you'd never grow up to be him

Break me-
It's too late now
You chose this path
Now deal with the price

    by Lisa Hamilton

    The darkness, my comfortable shield
    Shut out the world, noise,
    Constant confusion, and pain.

    Stars mark my passage,
    Each one

    -
    I have shaded the windows to my soul
    with the darkest death of night
    so that you can not peer inside
    and see my raw, blood

    By the Wayside



    When days have turned to darkness
    And nothing dries my tears
    Will I slip into madness?
    Will no one calm my fears?

    When
