sleeping somewhere cold

Folder: 
The Ramblings Of A Madman

I'm sleeping somewhere cold
but not as cold as the world below
somewhere down there I've lost my soul
tears cascading down from my eyes
do you feel the rain down below
can you feel the pain
as I live my life alone

these tattoos on my arms are portraits
of my war
they cover up some of the scars
you look but can't see
what it is that they really mean
I see the fear in your eye's as you get a glimpse
at what's behind mine

go ahead an leave me like all the others
just don't slam the door
cause I'm sleeping somewhere cold

I have been reading your

I have been reading your poetry, or it might be more like prose.
You express yourself very well. You deal with life in the rough.
We each go through many things in our lives, some more than
others. These lessons we learn cause us to mature and develop
into adulthood. I try not to look back so much, but look to the
future with hope for a better tomorrow. Keep writing, this is great
therapy. This way we don't keep everything bottled up inside.

I hate to say this but I feel

I hate to say this but I feel it to be true as of the moment anyway. but if I look to the future it always comes back as what the Hell is next? I have no one to blame for the places I find Myself in but myself . And I can live with that . I've tried to not give a damn and stay in the few shelters I've found from the outside world. an was happy for a short while here an there .
but there's something deep down inside Me that cannot let Me walk away. when I see anything stronger picking a target out of the weaker. it always end's up with Me asking If they'd like to try that Crap with Me... Ding Ding Round One ( lol)
I'll admit to some serious Issues from a real bad Childhood encounter with A Bad Man and Some Anger Management Problems but the rest was My choice of being where I was .
an as far as Adulthood ? Naw don't want to be one I never could trust more than about two( lol )

Thank's For the support on the Writing though I It is My Therapy.
