&ldquo;We are all a little weird and life&#039;s a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love.&rdquo;- dr suess<br /> <br /> &quot;Saying &#039;I notice you&#039;re a nerd&#039; is like saying, &#039;Hey, I notice that you&#039;d rather be intelligent than be stupid, that you&#039;d rather be thoughtful than be vapid, that you believe that there are things that matter more than the arrest record of Lindsay Lohan. Why is that?&#039; In fact, it seems to me that most contemporary insults are pretty lame. Even &#039;lame&#039; is kind of lame. Saying &#039;You&#039;re lame&#039; is like saying &#039;You walk with a limp.&#039; Yeah, whatever, so does 50 Cent, and he&#039;s done all right for himself.&quot; <br /> &mdash; John Green


I see what you hear
I hear what you see
Listen close
Eyes wide open
the truth comes from within thee

I am the monster
I am the nightmares
I lurk in the shadows
Watching, Waiting
For a victom
I am a punishment
I am a victory
I am loved yet hated
The theif
Of what is cheerished most

I go by many names
Joy,Hate,Luck, Vengence
But known for my trademark
I am dark and twisted
I am Light and free

I break you of your berriers
I wrench you from life
I am chosen
I am prevented
I am them
I am you.

Really brave of you to tackle this subject. I think my poem titled "Death Reject" has something is similar with this. Only that mine tackles different subject while yours tackles strength and courage. i read through yours once again and i see a face of death being bipolar. Nice way of portraying death. 5 stars.

 

If you will take a look at my work "death reject" it will be really amazing of you. thanks and i'm glad I take a look at your work. keep it up.

I agree. I've got to. This is the best work I've read by you. Death is your best piece. I can't stress that enough. :)

things are only as dark as you make them. <br /> there is always beauty in every situation. look for it and you will see.<br /> smile; sometimes it&#039;s all that will keep you from crying.

By far the best piece I've read by you... you're very talented. Keep up the writing! I am beyond words at the moment at this particular poem... it is just.... unbelievable... wow.
