*Lived*

inside I feel beaten

broken

torn

abused

and mangled

it fuels me

makes me mad

sad

and happy

I show these to little

only the close

friends

companions

the warm hearted

those who will understand

they will still like me

love me

and care

others hate me

punish me

and flare

no matter, I'll zone them out

I pay attention to things

that no one else sees

emotions

pain

anger

and down right love

compassion

and health

these people

my friends

they like me

most of the time

I love them

I hate nothing

it's all just a wall

few get through

crack

break

crumble down

this wall is large

it can only be opened

by me

I show little

only the ones

who care.

only, only, the ones

who CARE
