my life

seen only through a looking glass
a looking glass that is dirty
to a point that no one can see me clearly
only by those who cared enough
to have ever bothered to clean
to clean the looking glass
and see me for who i really am
to see the pain i show all the time
unseen by most who leave the grime
the grime upon the looking glass
by those i call friends, having made the effort
the effort to clean the looking glass
to see me in a new light
a light that shines and exposes the real me
the person who has tried to kill himself
who thought love would pass him by
and leave him to die and rot in time
in the gutter, lost and forgotten
in the cold upon which had taken me
taken me apart and left frozen inside
ice holds my heart in place
holding it firmly in it's grip
never releasing and letting me live
holding on and killing me inside
withering away, like flowers in the sun
without a helping hand to aid them
only predators to kill them
without a way to escape and be safe
stuck in the ground unable to move
other people, the others who don't care
they see the looking glass and a smile
a smile is all they can see
they never see the scars, the cuts, the pain
upon which is cast onto me by the world
they would never see this, all that haunts me
for they never cared enough
enough to clean the looking glass
to see me in the new light
a new light through the looking glass
through the dirt and grime upon it
if this looking glass should become worse
to crack and decay in time
due to the abuse without care for it
to help keep it together
then shatter it would do
taking the image of me with it
all over the floor and the body
the body of which was me
the looking glass is my soul
for if it should shatter so would i
death will come on swift wings
and gather the pieces into a bag
to fly off and throw me away
like the trash it was and still is
not mattering to any and all
the body for which is left behind
is buried along with the memories
left to rot and be forgotten
as the earth consumes without remorse
the world will continue without ever knowing
knowing that it was because of them i died
on with their lives, and future
without another thought more
for no one ever cared about the looking glass
for if they had, even with the smallest effort
it's shattering would be an event
which would have never come to pass
for many years to come and go

That's one of the most lovely pieces I've read in a long time... If that would have been posted to deviantART I'd put it into my favourite gallery immediately. heart

Speaking of deviantART, I posted this poem there and think I want to share it here, too. So, here it goes. I think it doesn't fit too bad with the already posted poem. It's titled:

Why?

Every day, in and out, I come up with things I want to tell people
I think about them all the way, once or twice or tripple
About what to tell them, how to tell them, all the things
About the choosen words, when to tell them, the timings

You see, I'm no native english speaker, and this might be the reason
Some things don't come along like intended and are considered treason
I often have a hard time to express clearly what I want or mean
And people still think I'm ignoring what they say, trying to be mean

Thought that had never been my intention, but I lose friend after friend
The thing I least wanted ever seems to become a trend
It's even hard to excuse and try to clear things up when you are told
That they don't want to argue about it, you start feeling old

Sometimes it's itching that hard that one is stunt, not being able to respond
and you feel like you'd be better off drowning in the pond
Starting a friendship isn't easy in any way, no matter of language
but when the this additional barrier joins in it's a real b***h

Finding out what you want to say is hard enough in your own tongue
but assuming that others look up the right words quickly is just wrong
having to hurry with ones respond because the other part has to leave
isn't helping neither and gets you riven by grief

I'm writing this down in the hope that some will understand
that I am at least looking for a friendship that won't quickly end
Some things seem to go to fast and I don't want to deny
All I want to know is just, complete stopping, why?
